Hey
friends, We at Trek Mates India are glad to invite you all
for a Nature Trail to the highest Point of the Borivali National park - Jambhulmaal,
which will be conducted on 22nd September ‘13
Little info about the Place:
Place: Sanjay Gandhi National Park, Borivali
Type: Informational Trail.
Grade: Easy
To have a walk in the nature is a rich experience, specially, to observe the plants and other life in Monsoon, the season in which mother earth is covered in unlimited shades of green.
Various fungi, creepers, climbers, bulbs sprouting after a long sleep, some grasses, can only be observed in monsoon. Multicolored butterflies, moths, spiders, amphids, flies, bugs and beetels add to the glory of the green. Each one of these have an identity, - a personality. It is a joy to learn about them from experts.
About the Highest Point Trail: 'Jambhulmaal' is considered as the
highest point in Mumbai City at the height of 846 Meters above MSL. Covered by
a dense forest and lies in the core area of SGNP, Jambhulmaal is carpeted with
a lush herbage in monsoon. The trail is 2.5 Kms from the gate of Kanheri Caves.
At the mountain top, a panoramic view of the forested Tulsi Valley and Tulsi
and Vihar Lakes greets the eye. The trail proves to be very helpful to the
people in general and students of Botany, Biotechnology and Ayurveda in
