Kalavanti Durg is a 2,250-foot (686-meter) high mountain in the Western Ghats, near the Prabalgad fort in Maharashtra’s Raigad district. It is the most dangerous stronghold on the planet. It has steep slopes, narrow rock-cut steps, and no support. According to folklore, the Kalavantin Durg was built in honor of Queen Kalavantin. Due to its perilous nature and the bird’s eye perspective of the immense grandeur that awaits atop, Kalavantin Fort is known as the ‘Climb to Heaven’.
