Purandar Fort, 15 August 2015 with Office friends

Difficulty level : Easy (we made it difficult by choice)
Best season : Monsoon

We went up normal way, on the way back we started descending from Church. Initially we thought that it should be simple way, but it was not very much easy. It is not very difficult either, one has to keep patience and search for easier way down.
Caution : There is army check post at top. You need to have photo ID proof.
To go to certain parts of fort, you need to submit mobile/ camera to Army.
