Tungareshwar Vasai
Tungareshwar is one of the highest mountain plateaus in Vasai.The best time to visit this place is in the monsoon because it feels like heaven. Tungareshwar is at an altitude of 2177 ft, one of the highest mountain plateaus in Vasai. So most of the trekkers, mountaineers and nature lovers visit this place. It is also a holy destination to visit for the devotees of lord Shiva, there are also many other small temples like Ganesha temple and Mata Khodiyaar Maa temple.
For the real trekker to Tungareshwar this is the first halt. From this point there are two options:
1. A trek right up to the top that is 8 km long (2 hours for average person one way)
2. A jungle trek to the Chinchoti waterfall (1 hour for an average person one way)
Both these treks are enjoyable and have their own charm. No amount of written words can describe this wonderful experience.
How to Reach: An hour distance from Mumbai. Like Chinchoti which is also a similar place people coming with private vehicles need to take a right turn towards Tungareshwar village from Vasai highway. You can also go by autorickshaw fro Vasai east
Eat:Their are small eateries near the temple where you can get snacks. One should never forget to enjoy Sweet Imli’s, Aavlas and Other Such Yummy timepass stuff while climbing the mountain of Tungareshwar, which is available on the way sold by Local adivasis and Villagers, these are actually natural resources of jungle
