Clubbing and bar hopping are already popular choices for weekend plans for a lot of people. So, we’ve decided to skip those on our list and explore the other weekend activities you can opt for. Here is what you can do to make your weekends in Mumbai more interesting:
1. Join A Paint Party
Join a weekend painting party in Mumbai and let your creativity run wild as you paint bold strokes to create your own masterpiece. Conducted in popular cafes and pubs on weekends, these paint parties don’t require you to have any prior painting experience.

2. Go For A Trek
Want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city? Feed the adventure junkie in you with some trekking.

Rajmachi, Prabalmachi, Karnala, Garbett Point, Sandhan Valley, Harishchandragad are some of the popular trekking spots near Mumbai.
