Matheran Hotels | MakeMyTrip Blog

Matheran, translated into “Woodland overhead”, is the smallest hill-station in India, situated at a mean sea level of 800 m. The dense forest cover, rich variety of flora and fauna, thousands of species of birds, enchanting views, and captivating bends leading up to mountain tops make this sleepy town a dream destination for people looking for a serene yet eventful weekend amid verdant landscapes.

Matheran is an automobile-free zone, and motor vehicles are banned here, which adds quite a touch of novelty to the experiences here. Even getting here, for instance, means leaving behind your vehicle at the nearby town of Neral, and riding the toy train from there to Matheran.
