Traveling on horseback is the best possible way to see the countryside as you
journey unhurriedly and through fringe desert, small oases and tribal lands;
through rolling hills and rural villages; or through forested foothills. The
scenery encountered on each journey varies enormously and can be shortened or
lengthened to suit your requirements. Marwari Horse Safaris are organized by
a team of young , enthusiastic Horse lovers, who will guide you & the horses
through Rajasthan. Some of the Castles en-route where you stay are owned by
the members of the Organizing team.

Kumbhalgarh Passing through
the Wildlife sanctuary we reach Mushala Mahaveer Ji (an ancient Jain temple)
& stop over for lunch. By the time the lunch is ready clients can visit beautifully
carved marble temple. After rest mount again and reach Narlai or Ghanerao (depending
on availability of rooms) by sunset.
Day 2
We start after early breakfast riding through the lovely bushy terrain on the
foot of the Aravalli Hills. Passing through colorful villages and seeing charming
service men and women working in the fields (its a farming community). We camp
on the outskirts
Kharchi Village for lunch. After lunch and
rest for a while we head towards
Rawla Jojawar. A big village
located on the foot of the aravalli hills and the market is full of colorful
fabric and beautifully embroidered leather shoes.

hamlets, where one can see colourfully decked Rebari women working with the
sheep and goad ad men with there lovely red turban grazing their camels. This
region has one of the highest camel populations in Rajasthan. We stop over for
lunch on a service community farm where one can closely look into the life of
a farmer. After lunch riding through a dry river bed and open fields we reach
Dhamli around sunset
Day 4
On day four we head towards the west moving into the desert riding through the
dry and empty fields which are only cultivated during the monsoons. We may see
some green patches here and there wherever there is sweet underground water
available. For lunch we stop over under a huge banyan tree in the middle of
no-where. After rest we head for
Khetawas Camp through dry
and rocky terrain. We reach the camping site before sunset and settle down in
the tents. In the night under the open sky we enjoy a lovely barbeque dinner.
Day 5
Leaving the camp site after breakfast we ride through the rocky and thorny terrain
which gradually transforms into very dry and salty plain with over grown acacia
bushes and very few shady trees. We pitch up our lunching tent on the wall of
a huge salt take called
Kharda Dam. After lunch we ride through
thorny acacia bushes, which provides shelter to the Blue Bulls (the biggest
Indian Antilopes). We reach Rohet Galloping through the salt tracks by sunset
Day 6
Being a shorter ride we leave at ease after breakfast passing through the small
settlements of Brahmins and Bishnois who very fiercely protect Chinkara and
the Black Buck antelopes, which graze freely close to these settlements. We
pitch our tent along the railway track for lunch. After lunch a short to Ride
to
Luni to end the day.
