Towards the eastern side of this range the forts like Aundh ,Bitangad , Aad and Patta are situated There are two different routes which can lead us to the fort. One route starts from Patta wadi, which is the base village of this fort. This route is very easy and we can reach to the top early, as Patta wadi is itself situated on the plateau.
The other route to this fort is from the Ninavi village.The Maratha army, under the leadership of Moropant pingle had conquered this fort in the year 1671 from Moghuls.The top of this fort is actually a huge plateau.
