Water availability There are cisterns of water available at the top, but it is advisable to carry your own supply of water along with you. Tips and Tricks The fort of Shivneri, which is the birthplace of Shivaji Maharaj, can be visited as it lies in proximity to Jivdhan fort.  Food availability Food is available in the base village of Ghatghar. You may have a light snack before setting off for the trek, and carry a light meal along with you. Accommodation There are no caves at the top of the fort. The storehouses within the citadel may be used for resting purpose though. The base village can be used as a stop-over point. Trek Routes There are two ways to reach the fort. The one which proceeds from the base village of Ghatghar is much easier. After reaching the base, we may need to take the help of local villagers to help locate the way which goes up to the eastern part of the fort. This path will lead us to stone-cut steps after walking for some time. The steps have disappeared for most of the part, and the entire path has turned slippery. We may need to exercise some extra precaution while climbing these steps. Climbing these steps will lead us eventually to the eastern part of the fort. The other route is through Naneghat which goes through the main entrance of the fort. We may need to take the help of a guide as this path is surrounded by thick forests for most of the part. The trail to Naneghat fort passes through a diversion after the dirt road ended. At the diversion, we need to take the right diversion to arrive at the base of the pinnacle. This route is filled with beehives and must be tread with extra caution. The entrance is blocked with huge boulders, and we need to squeeze through a small gap in the boulders in order to reach the top of the fort.
