A monsoon trek to Visapur Fort in India is the perfect way to spend a rainy evening. Located near Visapur village in Maharashtra, this hill fort is part of the Lohagad-Visapur fortification. Perched on a lush green plateau, Visapur Fort is a favorite for adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers. The trek, filled with boulders and steps, leads to the fort standing at 3,567 feet and offers medium difficulty. Carry water from the base village, as portable water is not available on the fort.
