About the Trip

About the Trip

The Garbett Plateau Trek offers a unique opportunity to explore one of the Sahyadri's hidden gems. Located on the western edge of Matheran, this trek provides stunning 360-degree views over Bhivpuri, Karjat, and the surrounding ranges. Unlike the crowded tourist spots, Garbett Plateau remains serene and untouched, making it a favorite among nature enthusiasts and trekkers seeking solitude and natural beauty.

Participants can choose between two distinct experiences: a Monsoon Day Trek from June to September, where trekkers walk through clouds, waterfalls, and lush green meadows, or a Night & Sunrise Trek from October to May, offering a pre-dawn climb under the stars to witness a spectacular sunrise over the valley.
