Sunday high

At 1,535 feet above sea level, the Jambhulmal trek takes you to the highest point in Mumbai. This isn't a demanding trek and so it's ideal for amateur trekkers. The end result is a panoramic view of Vihar lake, Tulsi lake, Powai, and Dahisar.

It also includes climbing steps carved out of rock to get to the final destination. Once you hit the top, you'll get a view of the valley, the Matheran range and other vistas.
