Hike in Mumbai (Goregaon) — A Forest Experience Hidden in the City
You don’t have to leave Mumbai to find nature — sometimes, you just have to look a little closer.
Within the heart of Goregaon lies a quiet green world inside Goregaon East - a living forest that many Mumbaikars have never seen. Here, Join With Me curates a unique family friendly hike designed to reconnect city dwellers with the wild beauty of their own backyard.
The day begins as our adventure host welcomes your group at the centre building, where the city noise fades, and the sound of birds slowly takes over. The air feels cooler, the light softer — and before long, you realise that you’re walking through a forest, filled with stories waiting to be discovered.
This beginner-friendly hike moves at a comfortable pace, making it ideal for families with kids and older participants. Along the shaded trail, you’ll pass clusters of flower plants, ancient trees wrapped in vines, and water bodies that mirror the morning sky. Our host shows some magic of nature that makes our younger participants super curious.
Children especially love this kid-friendly hike, where learning feels like play, spotting butterflies, listening to woodpeckers, and noticing the small wonders often missed in the city rush. Though this particular trail isn’t pet-friendly (as it’s part of a protected forest zone), it offers an equally inclusive, calm experience for all ages.
At Join With Me, we also organise birthday hikes here, intimate celebrations surrounded by greenery instead of glass walls. Imagine starting the day with a walk in the forest, learning about nature, and ending with laughter and cake under the shade of tall trees.
By the end of the trail, families often tell us they can’t believe they’re still in Mumbai. And that’s the beauty of this experience. It reminds you that nature doesn’t always need travel, just presence.
So if you’re searching for a family-friendly hike in Mumbai that’s peaceful, educational, and full of discovery, this Goregaon trail is a rare gift waiting to be explored.
