Navara Navri Fort

Historic fort near Nashik, offering panoramic views and a glimpse into the region's Maratha past.

Navara Navri Fort, also known as Navara Navri Killa, is a lesser-known hill fort located in the Nashik district of Maharashtra. It is believed to have been built during the Maratha era and served as a strategic outpost for monitoring trade routes and surrounding areas. The fort features rugged stone walls, a few water cisterns, and remnants of old structures, all set against a backdrop of dry deciduous forest and hills. Today, the fort is a quiet destination for history enthusiasts and trekkers seeking a short, offbeat adventure. The climb to the top is moderate and rewards visitors with sweeping views of the Nashik countryside. There are no formal facilities on site, so visitors should carry water and snacks. The fort is best explored during the cooler months of the year.
