Alang & Madan, situated in Kalsubai range, are one of the most difficult fort treks in Nasik District.
Alang (4852 ft) : The beautiful Alang Fort lies in the Nashik region. Top of the fort is huge plateau. There are two caves on the fort for staying and 11 water cisterns arranged in a Cascade formation & a dilapidated storage room.
Mandan (4841 ft) : Madangad is considered to be one of the most difficult forts to climb among all the forts in the Sahyadris.
