BY AIR
Matheran is only 90 kms. from the Bombay International Airport and 110 kms. from Pune city Airport. Hence, it is easily accessible from both, Bombay & Pune. From Bombay city, a helicopter service operates right into Matheran, landing at a helibase, and 2800 sq. ft. above sea-level at the race course grounds.
BY ROAD
It is accessible by road from Bombay, along the National Highway No 4 at a distance of 92 kms. right upto a parking-area bay called Dastoori, atop the mountain. From this point into the town center, either a trek on foot or on horse-back or by hand pulled rickshaws, as no motor vehicles are allowed within the hill-station area.
BY RAIL
It is well connected by rail again both, from Bombay & Pune upto Neral – a station at the bottom of the hill and then by a toy train winding it’s way up the hill on a single meter gauge, through jungle paths and cutting through mountain sides and tunnels, giving a breathtaking view of the valley below and the city left behind.
