Garh Panchkot is located 12 km from Spangle wings Resort. It is a ruined fort that was once home to the Singh Deo dynasty that is situated on the foothills of the Panchet Hills in Purulia. It is a great place to escape the chaos of the city for a while. This fort lies adjacent to Panchet Lake and is surrounded by hills and forests. The Rajas are believed to have lost to the ‘Bargis’ (Maratha cavalry that looted and plundered the palace) and were forced to move out of it. It's an excellent place for recreation and accommodation. If you plan to travel with family and kids, then I would suggest you go by car to cover nearby sightseeing spots. Explore the Panchet Hills for the best views of the Damodar River. Visit the Panchet and Maithon dams for beautiful views of the lake. Maithon consists of a large reservoir with many islands that can be explored by paddle boats.
Best Time to Visit Garh Panchkot:
Rainy days and spring are the best time to visit because the area is filled with greenery and forests, and during the rainy days the area looks much greener, and you can also see clouds above the hills, which creates an awesome landscape view. The area is surrounded by the blossoms of Palash trees during the spring season, making the whole area appear colourful.
Accommodations: Spangle Wings Resorts is one of the best hotels near Garh Panchkot where one can experience agro-tourism while on holiday and make the trip a memorable experience.
