Paargad Fort is situated to the south of Kolhapur in Maharashtra state in India, at a distance of around 28;km from Chandgad. One of the major attractions of this fort is its serene environment and lush green surroundings. Apart from this, it is also known for housing a wonderful bronze statue of Chatrapati Shivaji and a temple of Bhagawati Bhawani.[citation needed]
The gad can be trekked from the village of Morle and across Palye located in Dodamarg taluka. Bus service runs from Dodamarg to Morle (18 km) and Dodamarg to Palye (16km). A bus service also runs from Chandagad directly to Pargad
