Notes:

[ Google Review ] Visiting Rajmachi in the monsoon should be on the top of your list of your adventurous soul. Reaching there is half the fun. The off road trail from Della resorts approx 14 kms just gets better for offroading on an Xpulse 200. It's wet, slushy, slippery muddy, periodic Asalphated stretched which disappear at around 6 kms mark. You need to pay ₹50 for bike to the locals who state they're from forest dept but issue no proper ticket. No one you can complain to about it. And it's probably for ensuring the road stays a mud track all year long. 4 wheelers can be driven approx 9 kms inwards and later parked at the side of the road. You walk faster than the vehicles though. Other than this you encounter 4-5 water crossings, steep uphill climbs, numerous other challenging road conditions. However, even scooters can be ridden till the foothills of the fort. This is one of the fort built by our great Chattarapati Shivaji Maharaj. As a matter of fact, these are dual fort system. The initial part of the ascent is built but later you're on your own. You can consider this on a medium level of difficult during monsoon. Even kids can climb with adult supervision. On the top, the thrill and the adventure get a different meaning. The flowing saffron and the sense of hindavi swarajyas aroma can be felt. You can't decent without having goosebumps all over your body. Jai Shivaji

Notes:

[ Google Review ] Awesome place to get relaxed and have good memories with whom you visit, don't know much about the sunset but about the beauty- it's really awesome. The reflection through water and the traditional dam look is just amazing. Try capturing those reflection in your camera if you visit the place.
