Saputara – The Only Hill Station

The only “hill-station” in Gujarat, Sapatura comes as a breath of fresh air in the otherwise hot and humid clime of the state. Sprawled beautifully on a densely forested plateau, Sapatura is a hot new tourist destination, with a gigantic lake surrounded by resorts. It doesn’t get very cold there, but monsoons can be the best time to visit when the mist rises out of the lake and covers the nearby area. Attractions in Saputara include a boat club, an artisan village, a tribal museum, cable car and a couple of others. One of the perfect and romantic places to visit in Gujarat if you are looking to relax for a little while on an otherwise hectic trip.

  Kalo Dungar is of course about views of the spectacular and seemingly never-ending Rann of Kutch. But there is more to this place which is relatively off the beaten track. Kalo Dungar is known for its viewpoints, including a sunset point where you can watch the sun disappear in the wide expanse of the white desert. It also has a temple of Dattatreya, the syncretic deity of Hinduism who is a combined avatar of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. Not far from Kala Dungar is the Anti-Gravity Slope, which has become another point of attraction in the area The Drive To Kalo Dungar We drove down to Kala Dungar from the Tent City in Dhordo where we were staying as part of our Rann Utsav experience.
