Chapora Fort

neotraveller · Mar 17th, 2008, 17:58

I want to go to chapora fort (of course because my Dil Chahta hai!) and heard its on vagator beach.

Any tips on getting there (i will hire a bike/scooter for travel)? How is the path to the fort? lastly, is it generally OK for tourists to go there .. any precautions to be taken?

Fairly easy to find, you can see from a fair distance away on the hill. Park your bike underneath, and then its a short steep walk up the hill. 5/10 mins nothing more. Lovely view. Usually quiet. Good place at sunset.

Bikes are the best way to reach Chapora fort. You can have amazing views from the fort

Thanks for the tips ... I am now back from my trip.
The views from there are breathtaking .. definetly recommended.
There was a steady stream of people visiting this fort.
Although the fort itself has no notable value .. except for taking DilChahtaHai-style photos on its walls!
