'''Shrivardhan Fort''' is one of the two hill forts that constitute the Rajmachi fortification, the other being [[Manaranjan Fort]].<ref name="fof">{{cite web |url=http://www.fortsofsahyadri.friendsofforts.com/list_of_maharashtraforts.htm |title=Friends of Forts |access-date=16 March 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090405125744/http://www.fortsofsahyadri.friendsofforts.com/list_of_maharashtraforts.htm |archive-date=5 April 2009}}</ref> It is located in [[Rajmachi]] village which 8.5 km from [[Lonavala]] in the [[Sahyadris]] mountain range. At 900 m(3000 feet) above sea level it was the taller of the two peaks and was named after Shrivardhan Ganpatrao Patwardhan. Other than a rampart there is no visible construction. It was probably used at a watchtower for the Sahyadri region. There are two water tanks at the top of the hill but one of them has an iron pillar in it.<ref name="gunaji">{{cite book |last=Gunaji |first=Milind |title=Offbeat Tracks in Maharashtra |publisher=Popular Prakashan |year=2005 |pages=38–39 |isbn=81-7154-669-2 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=JIjmDLardesC&pg=PA41 |access-date=17 March 2009}}</ref>

== How to reach ==
There are two ways to reach the fort
1) Lonavla Tungarli way. It is an easy path which takes about 1 hour to reach the base village Udhewadi
2) Karjat-kondivade way. It requires a trekking up the hill for 2-hour. This route passes through dense forest area through the [[Ulhas river]] valley.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://trekshitiz.com/trekshitiz/marathi/Rajmachi-Trek-R-Alpha.html |title=राजमाची |access-date=19 May 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180520053940/http://trekshitiz.com/trekshitiz/marathi/Rajmachi-Trek-R-Alpha.html |archive-date=20 May 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref>
