Mount Abu & Kumbhalgarh Trip

Overview

The Mount Abu Kumbhalgarh trip from Mumbai combines the relaxed charm of Rajasthan's only hill station — a cool green oasis in the desert state, perched at 1,220 metres in the Aravalli Range — with the grandeur of Kumbhalgarh, a UNESCO World Heritage Site fortress with the second-longest wall in the world after the Great Wall of China.

In Mount Abu, explore the breathtaking Dilwara Jain Temples carved from white marble, boat on Nakki Lake, and watch the sunset from Sunset Point or Honeymoon Point overlooking the plains below. The hill station's pine-shaded walks and colonial-era bungalows offer a perfect weekend escape.

Kumbhalgarh Fort, a 45-minute drive from Mount Abu, is a 15th-century marvel with a 36-km perimeter wall visible from space. The fort houses over 300 temples and offers panoramic views of the surrounding Aravalli Hills.

We travel from Mumbai by overnight train to Abu Road station, with a 30-minute drive up the hill.

The contrast between the two destinations is what makes the journey memorable — mornings among the serene white-marble temples of Dilwara, afternoons walking the ramparts of a medieval fortress, and evenings beside Nakki Lake as the sun drops behind the Aravallis. The region is easy to reach from Mumbai, and because everything except the train fare — two nights of accommodation, daily breakfast, a private vehicle, fort entry and guided temple tours — is included, you only need to pack light clothes, comfortable shoes and a light woollen for the cool hill evenings. October to March is the best season, when daytime temperatures stay comfortable and the hills are at their clearest, making this a relaxed 3-day escape to Rajasthan's only hill station.

Based in Rajasthan, this easy 3-day trek is best attempted during October, November, December, January, February, March — when the trail and surroundings are at their most rewarding.
