It is a must-visit spot. For the travellers who are interested in trekking it is one of the best places. It takes about 2 hours to reach the pinnacle of the fort, if one treks by enjoying the beautiful scenery in and around the fort and down the hills on which the fort is located. It is located at a common point on NH44 and NH67. It can be reached either from Anantapur or Kurnool by road. It takes about half day (including travel and trekking).

As indicated by the engravings, the Penukonda state was talented by the King Bukka-I to his child Virupanna. This post was worked at the season of Virupanna. This fortification was a standout amongst other resistances of the Vijayanagara kingdom. With the decrease of Vijayanagara kingdom, the Sultan of Golconda caught this post. Later Mysore Kingdom caught this stronghold quickly until the point that British surpassed after the fall of Tipu Sultan. Based on a huge slope, the enormous and forcing fortification offers a terrific perspective of the town underneath. The storm cellar of the dividers, bastions and doors in the post was made of stone, mortar and lime. The primary internal segment of the fortification private building planned conveniences for regal relatives.
