This is trek to Alang, Madan and Kulang, three neighboring forts near Bhandardara region.
The trek starts from Udawane village which lies between Bhandardara and Ghatghar. An arduous hike takes you caves of Alang fort. The fort has several ancient water tanks, fort walls and provides nice views of the neighboring mountains like Kalsubai and Madan.

Route from Madan to Kulang involves rappelling down the 15 meter rock patch, a long traverse to north of Kulang and rocky staircase to Kulang fort. Kulang fort offers great views of Ghatghar and Mavali dams, Chhota Kulang and other mountains.
