Enjoy the quaint rolling hills and the mystic valley of Matheran Matheran is amongst the destinations you reckon for visiting. Bestowed with natural abundance and a unique vintage charm of the colonial era, the place provides tourists with a plethora of interesting attractions. Visit the place for a tranquil and fun vacation and pick from the best Matheran hotels.

Effectively preserving its splendid natural wealth along with retaining the vintage charm of the British colonial era, Matheran continues to bewitch the backpackers and adventure enthusiasts. With an easily coverable distance of about 100 k.m. from the big cities, including Mumbai, Pune, and Thane, with snake-like roads that are heavenly as they are full of different scenic spots and delightfully tranquil, the quaint hamlet remains one of the most-flocked hill


stations in the country. It is the smallest hill station in the country and just often swarmed by the locals of neighboring cities on weekends. Things to relish here include, an all-season temperate climate, old colonial bungalows, sprawling plantation land, bird watching, natural splendor, the unique culture that still possesses the vibe of good old days, horseback riding, etc. Besides, there are a number of outdoor allures to be relished including treks, nature walk, rock climbing, paragliding and the most common and popular, horseback riding.

There is a definite charm in the laid-back life of the place that makes holidaying in the town an experience to remember for long. Pack your backpacks, book your flight or train tickets well in advance; if possible book the Matheran hotels room as well, and head to the nostalgically attractive town for a wonderful vacation.

The hill town is a part of the Western Ghats and one of the most beautiful regions of it. Rolling hills capped with verdant forest, plantation covered lowlands and serene valleys with different pearl-like lakes dotting them, are the major constituents of the place's geology. From the early dawn the place starts to exhibit its natural splendor and scenic sites to behold the onlookers.


The fact that it is an eco-sensitive region and well protected from mindless industrialization has helped to keep the rich natural resources intact. No automobile is allowed to run within the town, keeping the place completely pollution free. It is a perfect place to unwind and spend some time in tranquility away from the hullabaloo of the larger cities.

Bewitching the tourists, it makes the tourists wish if only they could stay a little longer and relish the allures a bit more. It presents the tourists with a wide pallet of interesting tourist attractions. A popular tourist site you might like to visit is Alexander Point. Matheran has multiple good lookout points, probably the highest amongst all hill stations in Maharashtra. Aptly set in the midst of scenic locales, Alexander Point is one of the most frequented tourist places here. It is situated adjacent to the Madhavji Road. You will be stunned


by the wonderful views that you can relish from the point. The panoramic views of Rambaug Point, Chowk Point, Palasdari Lake, Garbut Point, and the sloping village of Borgaon are just bewitching! The other lookout points that you might like to visit are: Hart Point, Panorama Point, Luisa Point, Echo Point, Sunset Point, etc. There are different other wonderful tourist sites and allures to relish, and you have to be there to relish them all. There is an old train from Karjat that tourists jostle to get onto as it is a fun ride passing through the most scenic areas. Besides, it is also well-connected with Mumbai and Pune by excellent roads. Both the cities have the state-of-art airport with flights of IndiGo, Spicejet, Jet Konnect, etc. to serve them.
