Koyna Valley, A View from Pratapgarh fort.

Pratapgarh, a very strong hill fort built by Chhatrapati shivaji Mahraj in 1656-58 AD, is 24kms west of Mahabaleshwar and about 145kms south of Pune. Before Chhatrapati shivaji Mahraj, the hill, known as Bhorapya, was a flat-topped high round rock at the head of the densely forested Koyana basin.
