Situated a hundred kilometers away from Mumbai, Matheran serves as a place of cool respite from the bustle of the congested city. A popular weekend getaway; it is made even more attractive by the toy train that lugs its passengers on top of the hill to this small hill station. Matheran is Maharashtra's answer to Shimla, Kulu Manali and all the other Himalayan hill-stations of North India. Don't expect a elaborate town, it is a small village-like resort with red mud pathways, beautiful scenery, lush trees, leisurely walks and pure, rejuvenating air. It is also a haven for trekkers as many trails begin from here.
