Matheran is a hill station near Mumbai and Pune which looks amazing during the monsoon. It is one of the closest weekend locations near the cities.
Matheran is declared an eco-sensitive region by the Union Environment Ministry and vehicles are not allowed after a certain point. One can only explore the Matheran hill station by foot or horse ride.
After searching for places to explore near Mumbai, I came across Matheran and decided to visit. It was Saturday and we left at around 6:30 am. THe weather was pleasant and fortunately we did not encounter rain till Matheran. The road conditions are good only 10-20 percent of the road has potholes otherwise it is comfortable.
Best Time To Visit Matheran:
Usually it is advisable to visit from Sept to Dec. During monsoon there are chances of land slide. We did see boulders on the road.
Peak time starts in the month and Sept and ends in the month of Nov.
