If you and your bae are in love with rain and peace and wanna hang out for two to three days near your city than MATHERAN is the best location for you cupids.
All about MATHERAN.
MATHERAN is a beautiful hill station surrounded with lush green environment and well preserved with colonial architecture. The word MATHERAN means “forest on the forehead” ( i.e. forest on the mountain) MATHERAN is considered as the pollution-free zone of Mumbai that’s the reason that you won’t find any vehicle on the top of the mountain.
How to reach to your LOVE LOCATION.
MATHERAN is almost 90KM away from Mumbai the best and cheap way to reach there is through Mumbai’s lifeline the local train. But guys see to it that your girl is comfortable in travelling in the crowded local. All you need to travel is from your home location to Dadar station and from Dadar station you will get multiple trains that will drop you to the base of MATHERAN that is Neral station. To get the accurate time and fare for Mumbai locals you can take help of M-Indicator application available on Android and IOS both. This train fare will cost you approx. 35 to 60 Rs. For second class compartment and 210 to 230 Rs. for first-class compartment. If traveling in train is not comfortable for you, than you can take your own vehicle or hire OLA or UBER to reach till the ticket window of MATHERAN hill station but it’s not a safe option to take your own car as you might face the parking trouble there and OLA and UBER will cost you approx. 1500 to 3000 and so on.
Once you reach Neral station by train you can hire sharing cab this will cost you 60 to 80 Rs. per person that will drop you to MATHERAN hill-station ticket window. For entry one need to purchase the entry tickets they will cost you to 50 Rs. per person. The best way to reach on the top is through toy train but you won’t find toy train in the monsoon. So it’s time for a long walk with your bae on the hills to reach your deserved location at MATHERAN.
For a comfortable walk, you can make SPARX sandals as the partner for your long walk on rough roads.
Where to stay.
You can book the rooms from the local people there this will be a pocket friendly option for a budget weekend this option can cost you almost 900 to 1200 per night, but this rooms won’t be suitable for a comfortable stay as you will not get any facilities like food, hot water etc at the rooms. So if this is not your cup of tea you can book hotel from GOIBIBO app on your trip this app provides you with the best hotels with the best facilities even for unmarried couples and this will cost you to 1700 to 3000 per night at MATHERAN. I will suggest you that got for the hotels near Bazar Peth.

You can find many pocket-friendly restaurants near Bazar Peth area to go out for lunch and dinner. But the best outing plan should go like having a bowl of Maggie at the edge of Charlotte lake with your sweetheart.

Things to do in MATHERAN.
During monsoon there are very few things to enjoy in MATHERAN like you can take a horse ride with your bae to the breathtaking locations like Alexander point, One tree hill point, Charlotte Lake, Echo point etc. You can create many memories with your girls at these locations are they are best for taking beautiful photos of both of you. It’s time to make your girl your model for the day if you have a DSLR camera you can take along but be careful as it’s raining there outside. Not just this if you and your girl are gamers so you can play games on small gaming station at the Bazar Peth area. If you are lucky enough you can enjoy Mirror house, Horror house and 7D movie at MATHERAN but mostly those things are closed in rainy season. Also take your girl to shop for your family and friends at stalls selling chikkies, dry fruit and syrus at MATHERAN.
