Description

Pandavgad is the square headland visible from the city of Wai to the west. There are different ways to reach the fort. The fort can be reached from the Wai-Mandhardev Road near Gundewadi. Another way is to reach the fort by walking from Renoshe settlement to Waghmale settlement. While going to the fort from this route, you can also see a Dhavadi- cave. But this way the distance is more.

Pandavagad fort was built by Bhojraja II in the twelfth century. In 1648 it was under the control of Bijapurkars. Shivaji Maharaj conquered this fort in 1673. On the fort plateau there is a water tank, temple of Pandjai Devi, Maruti temple. At the base of the fort there are some caves in the village of Dhavadi. It is called Pandavgarh Caves.

A road passes through Renoshe settlement near Dhavandi village on Wai-Mandhardev road. Coming from there through Chaudharwadi, Waghmale settlement, there are two caves at the base. Even after coming down from Pandavgad, you can reach Dhavadi village. There are water streams near the caves. The first cave has eight rooms one inside the other. In the second cave there is a Shivling. This place attracts those who love trekking.
