A Charming Journey Through the Aravallis
Step back in time with a delightful ride aboard a quaint meter-gauge train that winds through the rugged beauty of the Aravalli Hills. This offbeat experience begins at Dev Shree, where your guide greets you at 10:00 a.m. and drives you to the scenic Kambli Ghat station. As the train chugs in at 10:30 a.m., you’ll board wooden benches beside locals—pilgrims, wedding parties, daily commuters—setting the tone for an authentic and engaging ride.

The train snakes through switchbacks, ascends slowly along narrow ridges, and crosses viaducts overlooking deep gorges and forested valleys. You’ll be treated to uninterrupted views of the Avast Valley and untouched wilderness, far from the rush of modern life. The single midway stop is delightfully whimsical—an unmarked station in the middle of nowhere, where cheeky monkeys gather for their biscuit bribes and fellow travelers hop on or off with easy familiarity.
This journey isn’t just about the destination—it’s about the slow, soulful rhythm of rural Rajasthan.
