The Butterfly Walk at Maharashtra Nature Park is the first event scheduled for Saturday, October 4th at 8:30 am.

Here are the key details and what you can generally expect:

  • Date: Saturday, October 4, 2025
  • Time: 8:30 am
  • Location: Maharashtra Nature Park (MNP), located in Dharavi, Mumbai (near the Sion-Bandra Link Road).
  • Organizer: Naturalist Explorers (based on the image).

 

What to Expect at the Butterfly Walk:

 

  1. Expert Guidance: The walk will be led by a naturalist or expert who will help you identify various species of butterflies (MNP is home to over 78 species), explain their life cycle, host plants, and nectar sources.
  2. Butterfly Species: You may spot species like the Blue Mormon, Common Crow, Common Palmfly, Blue Tiger, Striped Tiger, Common Jay, and Chocolate Pansy, especially since October is a good time for butterfly activity.
  3. Nature Trail: The walk will likely take place along the park’s well-maintained nature trails, including the dedicated Butterfly Garden area.
  4. Biodiversity: In addition to butterflies, MNP is a green oasis in the city, so you’ll also get to observe diverse plant life, birds, and other insects.

 

Practical Tips:

 

  • Contact: For exact registration, fees, meeting point, and duration, you should contact the organizers: +91 89764 51433.
  • Timing: 8:30 am is a good time as butterflies are most active after the morning dew has dried up and the sun is out.
  • Wear: Earthy-colored clothing (light greens, browns) and comfortable walking shoes.
  • Carry: Water, a hat, and if you have one, binoculars and a camera for spotting and photography.

The image lists the Nature Trail at Goregaon Filmcity as one of the events on:

  • Date: Saturday, October 11, 2025
  • Time: 7:30 am

This nature trail is likely hosted at the Conservation Education Centre (CEC) of the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS), which is located inside the Film City complex and borders the Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP).

 

What to Expect on the Trail:

 

  • Location: CEC, BNHS, Film City Complex, Goregaon East.
  • Duration/Difficulty: The trail is typically around 2 to 3 hours and is often described as having an Easy to Moderate difficulty, involving some walking and mild climbs.
  • Highlights:
    • Wildlife: The area is a dense forest and a thriving ecosystem. You can expect to see various species of birds, butterflies, and insects. Due to its proximity to SGNP, there is also a chance to see signs of larger wildlife, like leopard pugmarks (though actual sightings are rare, usually restricted to dawn/dusk, and the trail is guided by experts).
    • Flora: Learn about the unique plants and trees in the area.
    • Viewpoint: Many BNHS trails include a walk up to the Salim Ali Point for a panoramic view of the forest and sometimes the Vihar Lake.
  • Organizer: Naturalist Explorers (based on the image).

 

Important:

 

  • Booking is Essential: Nature trails in protected areas like the BNHS CEC usually require prior registration and payment. On-spot registrations are generally not allowed.
  • Contact: You must contact Naturalist Explorers for booking, the exact meeting spot within Film City, and any specific items to carry.
    • Contact Number: +91 89764 51433
  • Attire: Wear full-sleeved shirts/trousers (for protection from insects) and closed-toe, non-slip shoes with a good grip.
