Ramkot Fort

Ramkot Fort stands at the meeting point of Rivers Jhelum and Poonch, perched on a vertical cliff that overlooks the enchanting emerald waters of Mangla Lake. Its unique architectural design distinguishes it among the forts in the Kashmir region and shares similarities with the structures of Mangla and Muzaffarabad Forts, likely indicating a shared historical period of construction.

Reaching the fort requires taking a boat from the Army Water Sports Club at Mangla Dam, leading to the northern edge of the reservoir. There, the massive fort rests atop the hill, accessible via a short yet steep uphill climb. This secluded location, once a strategic advantage, now contributes to its remote and wild ambience. Though less frequented by tourists due to its distance and challenging terrain, the fort offers a serene, unexplored experience.

The best time to explore this ancient fort is from August to September, when the lake is at its fullest, surrounded by lush green mountain ridges.
