Chanderi is a majestic massif, 800 metres (2,600 ft) high,
that stands out as one approaches Vangani station on the way from Badlapur to
Karjat by train. Joined to Chanderi by a column are a group of four pinnacles
called Mhasmal.[clarification needed] The Chanderi-Mhasmal duo is very
prominent and can be seen from far-away peaks in the Sahyadris.
Chanderi looks close from Vangani, but the better approach
road to it is from Badlapur. From Badlapur Station hire an auto-rikshaw up to
Chinchavali Wadi. From there you have a walk of about 45 minutes to the base of
Chanderi Fort. To reach above takes about 2½ hours and to the summit takes
another 45 minutes.
