Mount Abu
From MaxTravelz
Mount Abu is the only hill station in Rajasthan, situated very close to the Rajasthan-Gujarat border, in the Aravali hills. The mountain forms a distinct rocky plateau 22km long by 9 km wide.

The nearest railhead is Abu Road, about 25 kms away, in the lowlands. Abu Road is on the railway line from Ahmedabad to Marwar Junction (onwards to Jaipur and Delhi or Jodhpur).
At Abu Road, car-taxis and cabs are available as well as state transport and private buses to take you to Mt Abu.
Don't you think it is a little bizarre to list Mount Ambu as a hill station near Mumbai? I think MaxTravelz and all the other wiki sites are an amazing body of reference work, both in range and depth and I use it regularly for my own work. It would be a shame to list anything that would detract from its authenticity.
Mt Abu is in Rajastahn, which is two whole staes away from maharashtra, where Bombay is located. I suggest that you delete the link to Bombay.
thank you sincerely a concerned bombayite and ardent wiki-fan
