Continue your trek to Louisa Point, from where you can get some spectacular views of the historical Vishalgad and Prabhal Forts. Then climb over to One Tree Hill that gets its name from the fact that there is only 1 tree growing on the hill. One Tree Hill is a nature lover's delight for the breathtaking views it offers. Standing at the top of the hill, one can see the entire valley of Matheran lying right below. Deep gorges and crests of mountains surrounded by wispy clouds make this spot a delightfully picturesque destination. Next visit Echo Point and experience the superb echo effect that this point offers. The point is at a considerable height and appears to be suspended in the midst of clouds. Enjoy a light refreshment at Echo Point (beverage excluded).
