Raigad Ropeway information


The Raigad Ropeway is a ropeway which provides passenger transportation to Raigad fort. Raigad fort, which is located in the Indian state of Maharashtra, is considered as the capital of national resistance and the final resting place of the great founder of the Indian liberation – Chatrapati Shivaji. It is a place of national importance and attracts pilgrims of all ages. Prior to the ropeway the only way to ascend Raigad fort was to trek to it, which took an hour. The Ropeway makes this site relatively more accessible to those not in a physical condition to make this trek. The Raigad Ropeway project is a non-profit endeavour, being the only one of its kind in India. This facility is owned by the Shri Shivaji Raigad Smarak Mandal, (SSRSM) Pune an organisation started by Bal Gangadhar Tilak in 1886.[1][2] Construction of this Ropeway was completed in 1996.
