How To Reach Monkey Point

Matheran, Maharashtra, India
As its name suggests, Monkey Point is famously (or infamously, depending on your experience!) characterized by the presence of a large number of monkeys, particularly Hanuman langurs and Bonnet macaques. These playful and sometimes mischievous creatures are a constant feature of this viewpoint, oft en interacting with visitors (especially if food is involved). While the monkeys are a significant draw, the point itself offers stunning views of the deep gorges and lush green mountains of the Sahyadri range. From Monkey Point, you can gaze into the vast ravines and witness the dramatic undulations of the Western Ghats. The dense forest cover extends far into the horizon, creating a breathtaking tableau of nature's untouched beauty. The cool breeze and the sounds of the forest, interspersed with monkey calls, add to the immersive experience. It's a great spot for observing wildlife in its natural habitat, though caution is advised when carrying food items. The accessibility of Monkey Point, being relatively close to the main market, makes it a frequent stop for tourists. The walk to the point is pleasant, winding through shaded pathways. Despite the active monkey population, the point offers a serene environment for enjoying panoramic views and connecting with the natural world. It s a fun spot for families and children, providing entertainment and a chance to observe the local wildlife up close (from a respectful distance, of course). The dramatic cliffs and deep valleys visible from here make for striking photographs, especially during the monsoon when the landscape is vibrant and misty.
