Best Trekking Trails to take your kids to

Let nature be your child's teacher

Treks are the best way to bond and spark an athletic spirit in your child. This is the best present you can give your youngster i.e. time outside. By taking your child on a trek, you may teach them at a young age how to respect the wilderness' laws, experience a connection to nature, and enjoy a hike. This ensures that kids will be equipped to handle anything the world throws at them. They will learn through trekking not to take anything for granted, how to deal with difficulties, and how to gain confidence.

Take them down these trekking trails.

1. Fort Heritage Area of Mumbai
Take advantage of this 6.8-km roundtrip route close to Mumbai, Maharashtra. It takes an average of 1 hour and 36 minutes to accomplish what is typically thought of as an easy route. You'll probably run into other people while exploring because this area is quite popular for road biking and walking. Any time of year is a lovely time to visit the path, which is open all year.

2. Jambulmal Trek

Sanjay Gandhi National Park, which is situated in Borivali in the western suburbs of Mumbai, is a blessing. At 1535 feet (468 metres) above sea level, it is Mumbai's highest point. The most well-known trail in Mumbai is the Jambulmal Trek or Highest Point in Mumbai Trek. To finish the walk, you must travel 2.5 kilometres and gain 1535 feet in elevation. Jambulmal provides a 360-degree panorama of the lakes at Vihar, Tulsi, Powai, and Dahisar. For novice hikers and nature enthusiasts, the SGNP Trek is excellent.

3. Karnala Fort Trek
The Karnala Fort, also known as Funnel Hill, is a hill fort in the Raigad District that is located 65 kilometres from Mumbai and 10 kilometres from Panvel. It currently falls under the Karnala Bird Sanctuary's protection. The odd pinnacle and bird sanctuary built inside the Karnala fort are its most well-known features. Currently, tourists and hikers enjoy visiting the fort's ruins. The elevation of this fort is roughly 1500 feet. For first-timers and parents who wish to introduce their kids to nature and trekking, this hike is fantastic.

4. Ransai Forest Trek

The name "Ransai" is a mixture of the words "Ran," which means forest, and "Sai," which means six. The Karnala Bird Sanctuary in Panvel is home to the cluster of six villages known as Ransai. The Karnala fort trek entrance gate is direct across from where the hike begins.
With a breathtaking perspective of the surrounding valley, this simple and secure walk winds through dense forest reserve lands. A fascinating route where kids may learn more about the various species of flora and fauna.
