About Nagla Block: 

On the Mumbai-Agra highway, near small village - Sasupada, begins one of the most exhilarating trails called Nagla Trail. About 17% of SGNP’s land lies beyond the Bassein/Bhayander creek and these forests are relatively pristine and for all reasons favorite amongst butterfly watchers, bird watchers and nature enthusiasts. A gentle walk down the hill side will lead you the small nature interpretation center at the base. This is one place where one gets to experience the confluence of mangrove ecosystem and forest ecosystem in all its grandeur. This patch of forest also harbours some of the most undisturbed and healthy growth of ecologically significant mangrove vegetation along the island of Mumbai. So hit the Nagla-Block trail and get ready for your own discoveries.
