राजमाची किल्ल्याच्या पश्चिम उतारावर बौध्द लेणं आहे. यालाच 'कोंढाणे लेणी' असे म्हणतात.ही लेणी कोंढाणे या रायगड जिल्ह्यातील कर्जत तालुक्यातील गावापासून आग्रेयेस २ कि.मी अंतरावर आहेत.ही लेणी ख्रिस्तपूर्व दुसऱ्या शतकात म्हणजे सातवाहनकालाच्या सुरवातीला खोदलेली आहेत.अखंड दगडात कोरलेल्या वास्तुशिल्पाचा हा उत्कृष्ठ नमुना आहे.या लेणी समुहात एक चैत्यगृह आणि सात विहारांचा समावेश आहे. या लेण्यांची निर्मिती राजमाचीवर असणाऱ्या सत्तेखाली झाली. यावरुनच असे अनुमान निघते की हा किल्ला साधारण २५०० वर्षापूर्वीचा असावा. राजमाची किल्ल्यास पूर्वी 'कोंकणचा दरवाजा'संबोधण्यात येत असे. कल्याणच्या १६५७ च्या स्वारी नंतर त्याचवर्षी शिवाजी महाराजांनी पुणे आणि कल्याण विभागात असलेल्या बोरघाटावरील राजमाची ,लोहगड, तुंग , तिकोना, विसापूर किल्ले स्वराज्यात दाखल करून घेतले. यामुळे पुण्यापासून ते ठाण्यापर्यंतचा सर्व प्रदेशावर शिवशाहीचे वर्चस्व प्रस्थापित झाले.
पुढे संभाजी महाराज जिवंत असे पर्यंत म्हणजेच सन १६८९ पर्यंत हे सर्व किल्ले मराठयांच्या ताब्यात होते. यानंतर १७१३ मध्ये शाहुमहाराजांनी कान्होजी आंग्रे यांना हा किल्ला दिला . सन १७३० मध्ये हा किल्ला पहिले बाजीराव पेशवे यांच्याकडे आला.१७७६मध्ये सदाशिवराव भाऊचा तोतया संपूर्ण कोकण प्रांत काबीज करीत बोरघाटा पर्यंत पोहचला.त्याने राजमाची किल्ला घेतला.यानंतर या तोतयाचे वर्चस्व वाढले मात्र पेशव्यांनी त्याच्यावर हल्ला करून राजमाची किल्ला आणि आजुबाजुचा परिसर आपल्या ताब्यात घेतला.पुढे १८१८ मध्ये किल्ला इंग्रजांकडे गेला. राजमाचीवर मनोरंजन व श्रीवर्धन हे दोन बालेकिल्ले आहेत. मनोरंजनच्या पायथ्यापाशी उढेवाडी ही २०, २२ घरांची पाणभरे कोळी लोकांची वाडी आहे. वाडीलगतच मारुतीचे मंदिर आहे. तेथून पुढे दक्षिण दिशेला संरक्षित वन आहे. हे वन जेथे आहे त्या ठिकाणी किल्यावरील अधिकारी लोकांचे निवासी वाडे होते.
इसवीसन १८१८ मध्ये किल्ला इंग्रजांच्या ताब्यात गेल्यामुळे मराठी राज्यातील त्या अधिकाऱ्यांना स्थलांतर करावे लागले. नंतरच्या काळात इंग्रजांनी सह्याद्रितील किल्ले वनखात्याच्या ताब्यात दिले. त्यामुळे पूर्वी जिथे अधिकारी लोकांचे निवासी वाडे होते तेथे संरक्षित वन तयार झाले. या वनात अनेक वाड्यांचे भग्नावशेष दिसतात. तसेच या वनात एक चिरेबंदी कोरडी विहिर आहे. या विहिरीत पाणी टिकत नाही. वर उल्लेख केलेल्या संरक्षित वनाच्या आग्नेय दिशेला, वनापासून खालच्या पातळीवर एक मोठा तलाव आहे. रामराव नारायणराव देशमुख, मामले दंडाराजपुरी यांनी हा तलाव शके १७१२ मध्ये बांधला असावा.
Rajmachi Fort Trek: All You Need To Know
Ever visited Lonavala? The place is a beauty in itself during the monsoon season. The gorgeous sight of the rain and beautiful trees! You can’t even describe in words what mother nature has in store for you and your friends and family. And if you are looking for a trekking experience in Lonavala itself, then our best suggestion might be the Rajmachi fort. It's one of the most famous forts in the Lonavala region. This fort is located at an altitude of about 2,710ft from the sea level, and that alone speaks for itself. You will be able to bless yourself with a spectacular view of the Sahyadri mountains as well as backwaters of Shirota Dam.
Two Balekillas are situated in the fort itself. These are the main attractions right here. If you want to know when's the best time to visit, then we might suggest you go for trekking in the monsoon or the winter season. You will be able to bless yourself with the spectacular view of the amazing waterfalls and green bushes and trees on your way to the top. The people who live in this place will greet you with warm hands, and you can spend time with them if you want to.
How To Go For Rajmachi Fort Trek?
If you live in Pune, you can catch a local train from Pune to Lonavala. Lonavala is the last stop. You will observe a diversion from the Khandala Ghat itself. This diversion will lead you to Kunhe Gaon. It’s a village that will lead you to Rajmachi. Be careful! This road is in bad condition and is filled with a lot of obstacles. You will be finding yourself crossing mountains with some valley on a side and on the other side, there will be a stone wall. If you don't know much about the route and are totally confused, then we might suggest you ask the Lonavala locals out there. They will be more than happy to guide you in the right way. Make sure you ask them for the RAJMACHI fort as there's a place with a similar name "Rahmachi.” Don’t confuse them Rahmachi instead of Rajmachi.
Is There A Landmark?
The best landmark for Rajmachi Fort is “Della Adventure Park.” The approximate distance between the two places is about 11.6kms. You will observe a diversion in the shape of Y between Rajmachi and Della. Now, you must go left. If you take a right, it will lead you to Valvand. It’s totally opposite of Rajmachi.
You’ll be required to park your vehicle someplace near the diversion itself as the road is really bad. If you want to understand what’s the road like, then you might compare it with a dirtbike racing trek.
Trekking Guide
A total of 2 routes will take you to the place. After you read this trekking guide, you will not require any guide or some kinds of permissions from anybody to reach this place. However, we will advise you to use Google Maps on your smartphone in order to have a better understanding of the routes.
Note: No public transport services will take you to the Rajmachi Fort.
Kondhane Side:
All you need to do is to search “ Rajmachi Trek, Kondhane” on Google Maps and you will be provided with a driving route to the place. People coming from the route of Mumbai to Pune usually prefer this route.
Udhewadi Side:
All you need to do is to search “Rajmachi Trek, Udhewadi ” and you will be provided with a proper driving route. However, we advise you to stay cautious as the road can get pretty bad from Lonavala, especially during the monsoon season. We recommend you to come by car as bringing bikes will create more problems.
What’s The Difficulty Level?
You won't be facing many problems. It will take you only a matter of 40 minutes at tops to reach to the top. After you reach the top, you will be observing the best view of your life. If you want to know about the construction of the Rajmachi fort, then we have no words for it.
Camping Information
You can easily camp for a day or two at the fort itself. There are a total of 2 caves where you can spend your nights. Almost 40 people can fit in a single place.
If you don’t want to spend your night on the fort, then there’s a second option for you. You can head over to Kalbhairavnath temple. It’s situated at the fort’s base.
If you ask the locals to cook you some amazing hot food, then they will have a pleasure to serve you. They will provide you with some Bhakris, or you can prepare some amazing delicious Maggi for yourself. And that's why to I recommend you to bring with yourself enough water and wood for the trip.
Are There Any Accommodation Facilities?
The locals will be more than happy to provide you with some accommodation facilities. They will help you by providing you with a room to stay with themselves. You can stay with them if you don't want to camp on the fort itself. However, the facilities provided by the locals are not so top-class, and you must not expect too much from them. You won't be finding any fancy stuff from them. However, you should not be facing any problems as it will just be a matter of a night or two. You can ask for them some local cuisines that they prepare for themselves or they will definitely provide you with some Pitla Bhakri.
