Top 5 Adventurous activities to do in Rajasthan for you Thrill Seekers

While we know Rajasthan is popularly known for its rich culture and architecture there is a whole new side of the state that adds to the beauty of Rajasthan. It is the part that is made only for all the adrenaline junkies out there eager to let go of stress on their vacation to Rajasthan with the help of these thrill-filled adventurous activities.

1) CAMEL SAFARI

While you can find yourself a great camel safari experience almost anywhere in Rajasthan, Jaisalmer would be the prime location to do so. A camel safari helps you explore the great dunes along the beautiful deserts here, and is a must-have experience to have in the lands known for its camel safaris. While the monuments of this state have many great historical stories to tell, the golden sands have much to offer as well. A camel safari will help you learn the rich culture of Rajasthan in a much more exciting way as compared to strolling around in courtyards of palaces if you’re more of an adventure seeker. If you plan on going for such a safari you should keep in mind the weather you can sustain in a hot desert, we recommend October to December when the weather is cool. You can also take up any package as per your liking the safari could range from a few hours to a few days even up to a month sometimes. Then again you could never get enough of this beautiful state.

2) DUNE BASHING AND QUAD BIKING

Love the speed sitting behind a wheel? We guarantee you that you would love to race through the golden dunes in the deserts of Rajasthan. Bash your way through the golden dunes to destress, its one of the most exciting things you can do while in Rajasthan. In the gusty winds of the desert you’re required to maneuver your way over the large dunes while keeping balance and speed along to your heart's content. For dune bashing, you’re required to be seated in a 4X4 car while in quad biking the activity remains similar but it’s done on a motorbike with four large wheels. Again, the best place we recommend for these activities would be Jaisalmer where the most famous deserts of Rajasthan are and can help you calm your adrenaline rush with these exciting sports and activities.

3) HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE

A hair air balloon in the sky beneath which a land of golden dunes, open courtyards in palaces, faraway mountains, sounds like a scene right from books or movies, right? Cross off another thing from your bucket list when travelling to Rajasthan and go on a beautiful hot air balloon ride. Have a beautiful windy experience where you’re floating in the sky, hundreds of feet above the ground, you’d feel on top of the world (quite literally). Have an amazing experience into the blue sky and over the huge deserts. Our most recommended place for that would be Jaipur, to see the colossal amber fort from above, travellers walk around in the streets of Jaipur, the pink city looking beautiful as ever while the sun sets. You could have a perfect romantic experience, if you’re travelling to Rajasthan with your partner you ought to go for a hot air balloon ride.

4) CAMPING

When looking for adventure we tend to love putting ourselves through situations beyond the norm, what better example for that adventure is there other than camping out. An outdoor activity for a stay outside the comfort of homes and hotels, to soak in all the nature. Rajasthan has just the perfect camping experience for you. You could camp in on the dunes of the deserts, away from the civilization and busy streets of city life and have a thrilling experience to rejuvenate your mind. The night sky filled with stars and cool winds would make you never want to leave. We suggest you to check out the most popular camping sites in cities like jodhpur and Jaisalmer, in seasons when the weather is not too extreme to camp out in the desert, preferably October to January.

5) TREKKING

One of our favorites for the adventure seekers, isn’t it? A great form of exercise too when it comes to trekking, the best adventurous activity for all you active and adrenaline-filled people out there. You would love to go around exploring the natural beauty of Rajasthan while out of a hike. What would be most popular here, would be to take up packages for trekking in the mountain ranges of the Aravali’s, one of the largest mountain ranges in India. Aravali’s would be a traveler’s paradise especially the active ones looking for a great hike. This mountain range in Rajasthan offers you beautiful waterfalls, meadows, and dense forests for trekking. We suggest you take trekking packages from Udaipur for the best experiences through the Aravali mountain range. You could also combine your camping activity with this one, and have a serene experience in the depths of Rajasthan’s beautiful nature.
