HolidayIQ reviewer Apoorva Bhardwaj gives a vivid description of her experience, "The Rann of Kutch has stood the testimony of time for centuries now, with ancestral heritage ruins and ancient deserts that refuse to acknowledge worldly rhythms. Barren land for miles, Rann of Kutch has an old world appeal with virgin territories spanning as far as one can see and quaint, beautiful villages that exist in oblivion."
Apoorva highly recommends the Lesser Rann, "I have to admit I highly underestimated the Little Rann as I had no idea what to expect from this place. A potential Biosphere reserve, the Little Rann is rich in biodiversity and considered to be the last reserve for wild asses all over the world, having a population of over 5000 wild asses, Nilgais, foxes, wolves, etc."
After providing an apt introduction she manoeuvres us towards the Eco camp, "The route to Eco camp is tricky but worth the detours! The evening safari is an absolute must do! The jeep drives you into the depths of the desert and gives an amazing opportunity to capture wildlife at its best. Sunsets over the lesser Rann are brilliant."
When you stay at camps, there is no binding on time. Live the weekend king size. Do all that you want to do! Attention! The party doesn’t end with the clock striking 12.
Full of rustic beauty, Kutch is a land of colours and cultures. The land is populated with ancient temples, attractive architecture in palaces, rugged forts, men and women in vibrant costumes and wild asses.
A true place for the Adventure seekers.
Rann of Kutch, dhodro is the place where you can see the endless land full of salt. The place is well connected to Bhuj and Palanpur through Indian railways. You can hire cabs from Bhuj. Rates strats from 1200 INR excluding passes which is 150 INR per head. Sunset is the best time to visit Rann. If your pocket allows you, you can also rent a hotel in the same area. Night out in the full moon night is a must. In Month of February Gujrat Tourism organise RannUtsav festival, and in whole year its the best time to visit the white rann.
Just travelled to Great Rann of Kutch. I used to wondering to visit this Place before getting married and just covered this beautiful travel destination. The biggest salt desert in the world. Planned to visit this month from 8 Dec to 11 Dec 2016. We travelled by flight from Delhi to Ahmedabad and reached around 9:30 pm (Flight delayed) and then took night bus from Ahmedabad to Bhuj. In the morning we reached Bhuj. We checked in to hotel and after fresh and up searching for local shops to rent bullets. Easily we found one local bullet provider. We rented 2 bullets as we were 4 bachelors. Rann of Kutch distance from Ahmedabad is approx. 90 kms. So around 11:00 am we started from Bhuj by Bullets. You need to take permit to visit Rann of Kutch which is 100 rupees per adult and 25 rupees per Bullet / Bike. After 1:30 and 2 hours ride we reached White dessert of Kutch. This was one of my dream destinations in India. Once we reached, parked our vehicle and enjoying white view of Salt desert. Both left and right side you will find Salt desert. Interesting thing is you can enjoy camel ride, Camel cart ride and Horse ride too. After entering gate you have to walk approx 2 km then you can see view from view point and can take photographs there. We spent some time there and felt fresh air there. It was a nice experience. Folk singers group performing there made it enjoyable. We took few photographs with them and returned back to Bhuj. I just want to say that this is a must visit place in India for them who love Nature.
Keep Reading. Will share my new experiences soon.
