Sajan – The Right Getaway for Nature Lovers

Just a hop away from Mumbai is a natural paradise that has been rated as one of the “top 25 adventure destination in India”. That’s a huge achievement, considering how vast our country is, and the number of amazing adventure spots and the wide range of activities they offer. Introducing Sajan, which is a small village in the Thane district of Maharashtra. Sajan is 103 kilometers from Mumbai.

What makes Sajan so good? On a short trip, you can try kayaking, trekking, rock climbing, and even go on nature trails. In the evening, you can have a campfire barbeque dinner, as you gaze at the wide sky and see the galaxy panned out right in front of you. That’s a view you miss from the city because of all the lights and smog. Hold the hands of your partner while you do so – it is very romantic. Tell your kids about the night sky and nature – it is very educational and a humbling experience.

Stay in Farmhouse at Sajan

There is a lot of nature all around Sajan. You will find Chikoo and Mango plantations everywhere. Many of these plantation owners offer their farm houses to guests. So you can stay within the plantation as well and find out everything about them. Of course, you can taste the fruits too, and you don’t even have to pay for them. Just pluck them from the trees during the season. It’s a lot of fun. There are tented accommodations and even tree houses too. Nature lovers often prefer them to stay closer to nature. Of course there are regular resorts as well in the village. Some resorts and tent communities are located just next to the river that winds through the village.

You may not like it too much as you approach Sajan, because of the many brick kilns nearby. But enter the village, and you will discover another world. You will understand why Sajan is regarded so highly by those who have visited the village.

But remember, there are no landmarks as such at Sajan. It is just the greenery, quiet village life and the nice staying options that is so pleasing. It is paradise for those who are keen on an idyllic vacation. However there is a small dam that you can visit. You may also visit the Kohoj hill fort, Palusa falls, Tiger caves and the Jawahar Palace, which are all just a short distance away from Sajan. You can see them all in just a single day.
