New Delhi: Prabalgad Fort, also known as Kalavantin Durg (Kalavantin's Fort), is located between Matheran and Panvel in the Indian state of Maharashtra, at an elevation of 2,300 feet in the Western Ghats.

It is located on a plateau very close to Matheran, but unlike Matheran Prabalgad fort does not have a good source of water supply.

It was known as Muranjan until it was taken over and renamed by the Maratha forces under Shivaji's rule.
