Hosdurg Fort - Featured Reviews (468)
Hosdurg Fort was ( as there's no fort in the real sense now) fort in Kanhangad near Kasaragod. Hosdurg Fort was built by Somashekara Nayaka of the Nayaka dynasty. There are only remnants of the fort left now and most of it are covered in thick vegetation. Near to tower is the Public Crematorium and the other parts have many Government buildings housing many offices and a School. Better to avoid the place and if you're religiously inclined the Nithyanandasram nearby with its 45 caves for meditation is a better option.
Hosdurg Fort is a fort in Kanhangad which is part of kasaragod district in Kerala state. Hosdurg Fort with its round bastion looks imposing from a distance. Somashekara Nayaka from the keladi nayaka dynasty of Ikkeri built this fort. The place is made well known by the Nithyanandasram with 45 caves. The fort is now in ruins, but located nearby is a school and some government offices.
To the south-west of the fort is a temple that was also built by the Nayaks. The temple, dedicated to Shiva, is named the Poonkavanam Karpooreswara Temple.
Not even the locals there know about the existence of such a place. If you keep on going round and round checking for all possible roads to the place that Google shows.
The fort is kind ok OK. An OK view of the place around. If maintained well, can become a good 15 minutes visit and photo spot.
Is this even a fort? Someone tell me if this is a fort. It's a bunch of bricks with a way up. Yes, you get a view, but it ends there.
Finding the way up is more satisfying than the view. Wading through the tall grass reminds me of playing Pokemon. A wild bidoof may emerge.
The search for this fort, that seemed almost unknown to the locals was something. "Fort?" "Huh?"
Very big fort in Kanhangad. If it is properly maintained it will become tourist attraction. Its fortress is very big. From that we could see Arabian see and manjampothikunnu. It is a best place to relax in the evening. Now this fort is in a bad condition. Fort is covered with grasses. If it is cleaned well nice location for photographers. This is one of the historical monuments in Kerala. From the top fortress we can see ships and boats from the Arabian sea. There is a cave in the fort near Swami Nithyananda ashram.

Our old heritage, destroyed by old age and weather. Hosdurg Court, PWD office, KSEB office, Poomkavanam temple etc working here. Need department protection and renovation work to save this structure.
If it is maintained properly then this would be one of the best forts in India
