Stored distance is 6.06 km. The chart axis follows the DEM sample (5.77 km), not the published line length.

Ingested from OpenStreetMap relation 15554627 (ODbL). The mapped line is that geometry. Distance, ascent, descent, and high/low points are the evidence-sheet figures (adjudicated 2026-09-21). Name is the OSM relation name (Torna Fort); no tag=* shield. SAC is OSM-sourced mountain_hiking (T3, ODbL, lastVerified 2026-09-21); YDS is the site cross-walk, still provisional.

OSM 2D length is 6.06 km (OSM line, ODbL, relation 15554627, lastVerified 2026-09-21). Provisional — OSM line, no cited itinerary. Out-and-back: the published figure is the one-way 6.06 km; round-trip is about 12.12 km in prose only. Related to rajgad-to-torna (OSM 15554652); do not merge. The published figure is the evidence-sheet 6.06 km for relation 15554627.

High 1,402 m is Copernicus GLO-30 (lastVerified 2026-09-21), verified on the walked OSM line. Low 764 m is the same DEM resample, verified. Ascent 457 m / descent 1,362 m remain provisional DEM. ⚠ secondary: HolidayLandmark — 1405 m (https://www.holidaylandmark.com/india/maharashtra/historicals/torna/, accessed 2026-09-21). 1405 metres, tallest in Pune district. Fort summit elevation is a landmark, never this trail high point.

Maharashtra hill forts are widely described as ASI/free; do not assert a permit. ⚠ secondary: HolidayLandmark — October to March (https://www.holidaylandmark.com/india/maharashtra/historicals/torna/, accessed 2026-09-21).
