Have you heard of a hill named after an animal? We know one such place and believe me it has opted to be named that way and is also one of our favorite places on Earth. That place is “Monkey Hill”. Yes, there are a lot of Monkeys present in the area and there is a small hill which is called Monkey Hill. You must be wondering what’s in that place, which makes it so dear to us? Is it that hill; well not really? Is it Monkeys? No! Is it the surrounding Nature? Yes but it’s half of the complete answer. And the answer which joins another piece of the answer is “Indian Railway”.
Colorful metal beasts meandering through lush greenery & honking through tunnels awaken nature. Huge “Tiger Valley” on the North, Continuous Western ghats stand tall on the southern side, beautiful Monkey Hill on the South East, and the Railway Track makes its way through these mountains and valleys. Now imagine traveling on a train here in the season of the Monsoon! You will probably be traveling through the clouds and waterfalls will be visible when you come out of a cloud. While playing hide and seek with nature suddenly you will enter a tunnel. Beyond the tunnel, you may find heavy rains waiting for you.
Monkey hill is one of the 3 cabins of Bhor Ghat. These are made to check the Brakes of trains traveling in Bhor Ghat. Monkey Hill is situated near Khandala. The Monkey Hill Cabin is situated on the foothills of Monkey hill. If you want to reach this cabin or railway tracks by road, you must be ready for a small off-roading ride through the lush green forest and a few patches of a large plateau. Pune – Mumbai Expressway is visible and audible while on this off-roading adventure, as you reach the cabin suddenly everything becomes as peaceful as the brain of a monk. The place is so magical that even the honking of trains makes you feel peaceful. Do you want to get on board the journey of Monkey Hill through our lens? Here We go.
