You can stay in tents under tall trees, wake up to the sound of birds, and spend your evenings around a bonfire.

Be it family getaways, romantic escapes, adventures with friends, or solo expeditions, these campsites are perfect for all your plans.

The calm vibes, walking trails, and cool weather of Matheran are perfect even for those who just want to sit back with a book and hot chai. So whether you love jungle treks, stargazing, or simply chilling out in the wild, jungle camping in Matheran gives you a bit of everything.

Booked: Forest Camping in Matheran
Travelled From: Mumbai
the vibe and overall setup was really good, even the food was nice. there were charging outlets and the staff was trustable to keep your belongings at reception also. We stayed there for weekend the activities of live music, trek and midnight movie did enhance the experience. even the washrooms were cleaned evry now and then and even had provision of hot water, the only draw back i saw was that the water in washroom was closed at night which did create a little unhygeninc and inconvinient situation in the morning

Hi the stay was good and we enjoyed view and food. I'm deducting 1 star, just becuase mens washroom was not clean, pots were broken. Washroom should be cleaned thrice in a day, owing to the fact it's a tourist spot and lot of people use the washroom.

The place is beautiful. They have common washrooms for people who choose camping, and those washrooms are not well maintained. That's the only drawback. Recommended place for group of friends who likes to chill alongside the nature. It's little far from the main market of matheran but that's the beauty of this place.
