Visapur Fort - A waterfall Trek#BlogchatterA2Z

 bethe 18th century by Balaji Vishwanath, the first Peshwa of Maratha Empire , stands the Visapur Fort in the Pune district of Maharashtra.

It is located 1804 metres above the sea level and is on the same hill as the Lohagad Fort . 

 It was built many years after the Lohagad Fort was built but the histories of the two forts are closely linked.

The British troops set up their cannons on Visapur and bombarded Lohagad, forcing the Marathas to flee.

 As a result , the Lohagad-Visapur was taken over by the British in 1818 . Considering, the strategic importance of Visapur , gateways were blown up, and except a few huts, nothing was left standing.
