Trek to Tikona fort was an outstanding experience, so far this is the best and cleanest/least polluted trek I have come across in Maharashtra. It takes approximately 1 hour to reach the peak from where one can enjoy exhilarating and panoramic views of Pawna lake and the surrounding region. So guys, enjoy this trek and please please don't litter. There aren't too many concession stands for food/water, so carry your own water.

Its a must visit place in Lonavala. Its a 30-40 min trek from the bottom to the top. And the view is stunning from every corner. In rainy season a rain coat is a must because Umbrella won’t work because of the heavy wind. In summer carry water bottle with you and please don’t carry food because you might attract monkeys unknowingly.

I am writing this post so that it will help people to contact right people on Rajmachi. People Normally visit Rajmachi during May end or June first week as fireflies are seen while climbing the fort. Usually vehicles do go to the top of the fort ( till the main plateau region , not to the top of the fort ). There is a village at top of the fort where usually everyone stays at night. Following are the details that may help : 1. Local Jeep Service : Akhil Sheikh : 9623150280 2. Sawant Bungalow ( Where staying & Food can be arranged ) : 9226125535 , 9881215091, 9011564522 , 9209821826 Mostly there is no range to the cellular service at the top, one might contact Mr. Akhil Sheikh as he is mostly stationed in Lonavala. Mostly, post 1st week of June there is heavy rainfall and it is difficult to take the vehicles to the top. I will highly recommend to take a 4x4 vehicle if you plan to take the vehicle on the top. Hope this post helps people who plan to visit Rajmachi
