    These points are one of the real beauty of Mahabaleshwar. You can get parking space hardly Because the parking is free of cost and people are careless over here parking their vehical like their own property. Little trek with steps, you can get such a wonderful view of the mother nature. Food is available like peanuts corn etc. Be careful with monkeys they will snatch your food and phone sometimes. 😄

    One of the best view point in Mahabaleshwar. Must visit MALCOLM POINT Views from point : Artur seat Torana Garh Fort Pratap Garh Fort Savitri Valler History: British general John Malcolm visited Mahabaleshwar and was stunned by the charming hilly terrain and natural beauty of the region of Mahabaleshwar. To honor John Malcolm, the most amazing mansion of the entire colonial era was built and not just this much, this mansion was named after him. Today it is a prized possession belonging to the past of India. Mount Malcolm is counted amongst the ancient buildings present in the region of Mahabaleshwar. This mansion was constructed in the year 1829 and it is one of the most visited tourist spots of Mahabaleshwar. People value the unique architecture and wonderful designs flaunted on the walls of this mansion. Though the mansion has lost its original charm due to passage of time, it is still able to woo the hearts of the visitors.

    Soaring peaks, Breathtaking valleys. Lush flora, Cool, crisp mountain air, This is Mahabaleshwar, Maharashtra's most popular hill station, and once the summer capital of the Bombay Presidency during the British Raj. Mahabaleshwar means 'God of Great Power' in Sanskrit, Indeed, the place is great and bountiful, rewarding the visitor with a mix of old-world charm, natural beauty and modernity. A tour of Mahabaleshwar town and the surrounding countryside would take at least a couple of days as there is much to see and experience,. The town bazaar is called Malcolm Peth after the then British Governor of Bombay. sir John Malcolm. It lies at the heart of Mahabaleshwar with its hotels, shops, restaurants, outlying bungalows, government offices, and jostling crowds. You can visit the this place it's worth of every thing You can also enjoy Maggi at this place i suggest that brings water along with you.

    It si located on the peak of the mountain, far from the parking zone. Best view of Pratap Garh Fort and Savitri River from this mountain peak. Little bit tough climbing for elder people and childrens. Food and water stalls are available on the way. Worth of time, energy and money, it's a peace of mind.

    The scenic beauty is mesmerizing and simply cannot be captured on camera. One has to come here to experience the beauty of nature. The view of Western ghats from this point is truly marvelous and will surely be etched in your mind. Caution: do not lean and take selfies. Beware of monkeys.

    The point is located next to Kate's point. This is a place that would simply take your breath away. An absolutely beautiful and stunning view point that offers unbelievable sight of lush green Western Ghats range, covered with clouds. This looks like heaven in the rain. This point is situated at the height of 1470 meters above seal level. This point was discovered by British Officers. This point is on the trail of Arthur point, There are other points as well like echo point and Hunting Point , they are very close to each other and show the view of the same valley but from different angles. Adding a few photos of my last visit. There are few stalls for snacks also available for Maggie and sweet corn. You can enjoy a plate of Maggie with a magnificent view. It was a little bit foggy as I visited in September but I loved it. There are few wild cows there, normally they are not harmful but do not try to disturb them and take selfies or feed anything to them(you can ask any nearby stall vendor to feed something, they are pro). Added a photo of that pretty cow as well. This was my second visit to this point. Because of bad weather and I couldn't go to Arthur's seat. But definitely gonna visit it next time.

    This point was also good and this area is full of red face monkeys which are expecting food and drinks from visitors. But the place was so beautiful and peaceful.
