Out of the 6 cannons, the biggest cannon named “Laxmi” is near the temple. One can see two ponds and two caves on the fort. From the fort one can view Tung, Tikona, Karnala, Prabalgad and Manikgad range.
Ghangad : A relatively small fort located along the old trade route Pali-Sarasgad-Sawashni Ghat-Ghangad-Tail Baila-Korigad.

During Peshwe rule Ghangad was turned into a prison, housing political prisoners as well as social criminals. One can easily reach the top within 1 hour. Sarasgad, Sudhagad, Tail-Baila and Mulshi backwaters can be viewed from the top.
