One Tree Hill is located in Matheran, a small hill station on the outskirts of Mumbai and Pune. The trek starts from base village Ambewadi, in Karjat, Maharashtra, approximately 65 km from Mumbai, 108 km from Pune.

As the name suggests, the trail of this trek takes you to the end-point, which is a hill that bears one tree!

The trail begins from the fields of Ambevadi village and takes you through lush forests of the Sahyadris. The forest walk ends giving you the first view of the One Tree Hill. You climb up and are embraced by spectacular views of surrounding mountains and beautiful blue sky!

After the climb we walk through an amazing jungle trail to the quaint hill station of Matheran.
