Matheran Maharashtra India Travel

Matheran (Jungle Topped), resting atop the Sahyadris Mountains amid a shady forest crisscrossed with walking tracks and breathtaking lookouts, is easily the most gorgeous of Maharashtra’s hill stations.


Hugh Malet, collector for the Thane district, ‘discovered’ Matheran in 1850 while climbing the path known as Shivaji’s Ladder; thereafter it quickly became a popular hill station. The place owes its tranquillity to a ban on motor vehicles and bicycles, making it an ideal place to rest the ears and lungs. It’s a very friendly town, well geared up for Indian tourists, but less sure of foreigners.
