This fort was captured by Bimb Raja of Mahim (Palghar) from Kolis.

In 1737, this fort was conquered by the Maratha forces led by Chimaji Appa against Provincia do Norte, but it was reconquered in the counter-offensive by Antonio Cardim de Frois, the new General of the North.

In 1818 Captain Dickinson captured this fort and thus it went into the hands of the British East India Company.

The narrow path climbing up on the eastern side of the hill leads to the entrance of the fort.

The local villagers make night stay and food arrangements at a reasonable cost.

There are nothing much structures to be seen on the fort, except for the rock cut pond, which is full of lotus flowers and a cave inhabited by a sadhu.
