Matheran - Two Day Trek

Matheran (2624 ft) is the nearest hill station to Mumbai and a paradise for hikers, particularly in the monsoon. It has many routes and one can always spend an enjoyable hiking day. Matheran - means Jungle Top or Wooded Head, which is just what it is, an undulating hilltop cloaked in shady trees. Matheran is free of all forms of motor vehicles. It is ringed by many km of walking tracks, which leads to lookouts that drop sheer to the plains. Matheran is an ideal camping ground and offers opportunities to be one with nature than most other destination.
