Trek organisers also commend the views of Pavana dam and the nearby forts of Tung, Lohagad and Visapur.
In 1657, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj brought the whole of Konkan, which had been Nizam territory, under his control when he conquered Tikona along with the forts of Karnala, Lohagad, Mahuli, Songad, Tala, and Visapur.
In 1660, Dhamale family, the Deshmukhs from Maval region were charged with ensuring the security of fort Tikona.
Tikona fort was surrendered to the Mughal warrior Kubadkhan, who had attacked the region together with Halal Khan and others, according to the Treaty of Purandar signed on 12 June 1665.
After the meeting the Akbar was offered to stay on Tikona fort, however, he was shifted to Jaitapur as the climate didn't suit him.
The villagers from the local fort restoration committee in the Tikonapeth make night stay and food arrangements at a reasonable cost.
