Mumbai has unveiled its first-ever elevated nature trail at Malabar Hill, offering a serene escape in the middle of the bustling city. Modelled after Singapore’s popular Tree Top Walk, the trail took nearly four years to complete and is set to be a major attraction for nature lovers.  

 

The 705-metre-long walkway connects Kamala Nehru Park with Doongerwadi Woods, allowing visitors to experience Mumbai’s natural beauty from an elevated perspective. Built and managed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), the project aims to bring people closer to nature while preserving the environment.  

 

Stretching through the Malabar Hill forest, the trail offers breathtaking views of the Arabian Sea and features a glass-bottom deck, where visitors can look directly down at the forest floor. A designated bird-spotting area allows enthusiasts to observe various bird species in their natural habitat.  

 

Surrounded by more than 100 species of trees, including Gulmohar, Almond, Jamun, and Banyan, the trail is home to a variety of birds like kingfishers, bulbuls, and parakeets. Visitors might also spot small reptiles such as lizards and pythons in their natural surroundings.
