Gilbert Hill has become a tourist spot in Mumbai. MTDC expects visitors from foreign countries to flock to the spot. The proposal endeavours to develop facilities for bungee jumping and paragliding upon its 2,000 square feet of tabletop area

There are two temples, the Gaodevi and Durgamata temples, set in a small garden, are accessed by a steep staircase carved into the rock. The hill offers a panoramic view of suburban Mumbai

Gilbert Hill was declared a National Park in 1952 by the Central Government under the Forest Act. In 2007, after years of lobbying by geologists, the hill was declared a Grade II heritage structure by MCGM

In 2006, a boulder rolled off the hill, raising concerns of its deteriorating condition
