Honeymoon Point in Matheran

Thursday, January 31, 2013

A series of steps from the horse park take you to Honeymoon Point.

From here you can see Mini Echo Point and Malang Point.

View from Honeymoon Point

This point offers an amazing view of the valley. There is a valley crossing setup here, the biggest in Matheran. Sadly it is operated only on weekends. The adrenaline junkie in me had been looking forward to crossing the valley with a camera in my hand. What an amazing feeling that must be!

I don’t know how much it would cost, but I guess it should be somewhere between Rs.250 to Rs.500 as the distance is rather long.

Walkers Tank in Matheran

A little ahead of Landscape Point, there is a diversion. One road goes to Honeymoon Point and the other to Walkers’ Tank. This is actually a small pond full of dirty polluted water. The horseman told me that they use this pond to immerse statues of Ganpati during the Ganesh Chaturthi festival.

There’s nothing to see here other than this polluted water tank.
