The Hidden Nature Trail of Mumbai
is a trail for a child, adult, and even a senior.
Most importantly it's for one with a keen interest in everything alive in the forest
Led by our Naturalist & Wildlife Expert
We intend to still keep this Mumbai's best secret
Next Open Group Experience - 15th July 2023
This trail is the perfect trail for watching butterflies, dragonflies, birds, and other life forms that inhabit this forest.
Depending on season one can spot a variety of birds like Tickell's Blue, Asian Paradise Flycatcher, and much more.
Who is this trail for & Why
As mentioned at the start, this trail is for everybody.
The walk is gradual and not tiring. It is covered with tree canopies and thus the walk stays very pleasant throughout.
Parents, we insist you bring your kids along. This walk is a great way to give your children their dose of nature in a very relaxed environment.
Birders / Wildlife enthusiasts, you do want to carry your pair of binocs. Last time, we saw a passel of wild boars apart from a bunch of birds.
Only if luck is on our side this time too. Fingers crossed 🤞
​
Anyone that wants to learn about Forest Flora & Fauna With our naturalist, you are in for a mindful of information. So stay fresh
Someone that wants to get outdoors in nature but take it easy
Apart from this being the most convenient trail in Mumbai in terms of travel time to the meetup spot, this is a very relaxed walk from start to end and is a great way to get some fresh air without tiring yourself.
​
​
The Plan
We meet at 7.15 am at Goregaon
(Exact Meetup GoogleMap Location will be shared a few days prior to the walk)
Parking is available.
After breaking the ice with introductions and a brief on the trail, we begin the walk

Throughout the walk, we will identify flora & fauna, along with elaborate conversation on the species.
The trail ends by 9.30 - 10 am
Your role as a Responsible Adventurer
If you aren't aware yet, then you should know that we do our best to host our outdoor trips responsibly and reduce the detrimental impact on the environment.
Since the past few years, we have noticed how social media, irresponsible & over-tourism in the Maharashtrian mountains has ruined the great outdoors we have. A significant number of treks in Maharashtra receive thousands of irresponsible humans that cause severe environmental damage.
In order to reduce the impact and not contribute to it, we host our experiences in lesser-known, hidden, or unexplored locations in the mountains.
When you do join us on this trek, there is a very strong request to keep the whereabouts of the location to yourself.
