On the city's northern edge, Sanjay Gandhi National Park wraps ancient Buddhist caves in rare urban jungle. Locals escape here for forest trails, and the Kanheri Caves reward the climb with centuries-old rock-cut shrines.
The park is ticketed, with the Kanheri Caves a highlight; you can walk, cycle or take a safari through the greenery in Borivali.
Local tip: Start early to beat the heat and have the trails largely to yourself.
