Myra Point, Matheran


Myra point is located on the east side of Matheran facing the Katwan Valley and Garbett. There is a natural spring found by Captian Harisson while exploring Matheran, hence a natural spring is named Harisson spring. The water source is throughout the year and drips from the rocks slowly and collects into the pond. It is just near Myra point.

This is also a point where one can trek from Katwan village up towards Matheran from Myra. This is one of the route to enter Matheran from Katwan village. This point comes when you walk from Dasturi Naka to Matheran Market. It is around 1.5km from Dasturi and 1 km from market.
