| Introduction |
Durg Dhakoba is one of the nice treks in Pune district but not known to many trekkers. Among these two Durg is a fort but Dhakoba is a mere tall mountain. But the scenary around the forts is simply amazing !!
These two are situated at the origin of Kukdi river and the temple of Kukdeshwar is one of the few temples in Hemadpanti architecture.
Standing on these two places you can take overview of Bhimashankar forest, Ahupe and Amboli Ghat, Gorakhgad Macchindragad and Siddhagad. |
