Happy
Monsoon Cupids,
You
know which the most favorite season is for all the Cupids….Well indeed it is
monsoon.
So
with the arrival of Rainy Season ,waters pouring on the earth and love pouring
within our hearts we would like to share a weekend gateway trip where we went
to MATHERAN.
Wonderful
view of the clouds touching the tip of the mountains, hearing the sound of several
birds chirping, sight of a dense forest cover with several trees with its
branches and leaves swaying to the tune of cool breeze, just when the rain
stops and the water droplets sitting on the leaves and the leaves slightly
moving back and forth so that the droplets fall on the mother earth, your
senses getting addicted to the beautiful scent of the mud and the green lush
cover, visiting a place with almost NIL Air pollution, All of these might sound
like a Paradise to you.
On
the earth there is no perfect paradise but there are pieces of it. MATHERAN is
one of such place which will take you way back over a hundred years in time
when there were no vehicles.
As
there are no vehicles allowed the air pollution is almost NIL.
What
else you need as a NATURIST? If you are a true NATURE lover and if you want to
run away from the hustling and bustling city then this place can be a HEAVEN
for you.
If
you have hidden hints of adventurer in you then this place also offers ZIP
Lining or Valley crossing as you will see in the pictures and also mountain
tracking ( we were not fortunate enough to do mountain tracking because of lack
of time )
So
starting the Trip….
We
decided to go to Matheran during weekends way back four years before in 2012
when we were “BACHELORS”
We
went there with a bunch of our close friends with whom we have travelled so
many places within India.
Matheran
is small hill station in the state of Maharashtra and is located about 90kms
from Mumbai. The word MATHERAN means “Mother Forest”. Matheran is an eco-
sensitive region declared by the Government of India. Vehicles are not allowed
in Matheran which makes this place different from others.
There
are a lot of look out points which gives you wonderful and spectacular views of
different mountains. The Panorama Point provides you 360 degree views of the
surrounding region.
There
are different points such as Alexander Point, One tree hill ,Echo point, Panorama
Point which is a Sun rise point and also Porcupine Point which is a Sun set
point.
This
place can work wonders for all the “NATURISTS” and “ PHOTOGRAPHERS”.
Our
planned trip in Monsoon came with a set of its own Advantages and Drawbacks.
