My Experience of Kedarnath Shiva Temple Trek - Jaipur

During my trekking tours in and around Jaipur, I got to know about this trek through one of my friends. I called a few of my college buddies to join me on this trek and as always they were happy and even excited to join me in this trek.

We planned this trek for the coming weekend, Saturday but it was raining heavily in Jaipur, so the plan was moved to Sunday, which was even much better as the weather was so amazing on that day, I had this feeling that this will going to be one of the best treks because of the super romantic weather.

The trekking route turns gorgeous after the rain

So as planned, we met at the main road of Jagatpura, New Choudhary Dhaba in the early morning. We parked our cars and took eatery items and yes homemade tea and stuff and started our memorable trek.

We got the trail from where we had to climb, although we had to struggle a bit to get the correct route of the trek. Once we found the correct route, we started climbing the hill. As we moved on, the scenery was getting even more beautiful and marvelous. The green surroundings, the cloudy weather, the chill, and the smoky air, everything was just perfect. We were so enjoying this trek.

Finally, we reached our destination, the Kedarnath Shiva Temple. The temple felt so holistic and the aura was so amazing. All sides of the temple were surrounded by the beautiful green Aravalli hills. The clouds were moving just in front of us, making the scenery even more incredible. We really had the most rememberable moments there.

The view from the top of the temple is spectacular

My friend even brought his guitar, so we had a superb musical session, and a tea session with some snacks. The whole experience was just amazing. We loved the vibe and the spiritual aura of Shiva Temple. We had completely endorsed this natural gift of beauty.

We really enjoyed our time there. and finally came back to our starting point.

Points to keep in mind

I am here with one of the most beautiful and adventurous Treks in Jaipur, offering the most remarkable and stunning view of the famous Jal Mahal, the Chabutra Trek. This is one of the most stunning offbeat spots to view the entire pink city from one side and the marvelous Nahargarh fort standing in the midst of fabulous Aravalli ranges on the other side.

I will share all the vital information and details of this invigorating Trek. So keep reading!

About Trek

Chabutra trek is a famous yet hidden trek in Jaipur. The word Chabutra, in Hindi, means 'a stage'. The trek ends at an amazing spot where a few ruins of a stage-like structure are there called Chabutra, hence the name Chabutra Trek. 

It is believed that this structure is a part of the ruins of the old medieval fort or monument. And only this part is the remaining of the monument. The location provides the perfect viewpoint, especially in the monsoon.

What is the Trekking Route of Chabutra Trek?

First, you need to reach Gaitor Ki Chhatriyan, there is a parking area to park your vehicle. Take the stairs and after taking 50 steps you need to take left(As indicated in the route map below) and that trail will take you to the Garh Ganesh Temple which is located at the top of the hill.

What is the Best Time for Chabutra Trek?

Monsoon Season: The best and the most satisfying season to plan this trek is the monsoon season. The stunning Aravalli ranges will be covered with green vegetation, and the aroma of the place will be just amazing. Along with the green scenic beauty, the weather will be chill with breezy air. You will have an enjoyable trek this season.

Winter Season: Another good option is the winter season. This is also a good time to plan this trek. Although you may not notice the greenery around you like in the monsoon season, winter has another perk to offer, which is the foggy and mystic view of Jaipur city and the marvelous Jal Mahal.

Summer Season: The summer season means extremely hot weather in Jaipur, but still you can plan this trek in the early morning time to save yourself from the bright sun.

My Experience of Chabutra Trek

This trek was a sudden plan during my trekking trips in Jaipur. I got to know about this trek through one of my friends but couldn't get much information on this on the internet. So we decided to plan this trek and explore the new places in Jaipur. This time even my college friends decided to join me on this trek.

So as planned, we reached Gaitor Ki Chhatriyan in the early morning and all of us met at the parking area. We took our bag full of snacks and I also brought homemade tea to amaze my friends, thanks to my lovely wife. 

We started our journey from Gaitore Ki Chhatriyan and after climbing the stairs, we reached Garh Ganesh Temple, which was a very easy task for me as I had already covered Garh Ganesh to Charan Mandir Trek through the same route to Garh Ganesh Temple.

After reaching Garh Ganesh Temple, we followed a small trail taking us to the bushy hill. The trail was clear and not so confusing and I must say the scene was stunning and dreamy, especially for the jaipurite. We noticed two more college students joined us on the trek as they were curious that where we were going (since I was shooting my journey for my vlog channel, they became more generous to join us). 

Finally, after walking and talking, we didn't realize that we reached our destination spot. We found the broken stage-like structure with stairs to climb to the top. We climbed up and eventually witness the most stunning view we were talking about. I could see the entire Jaipur city on one side and the exquisite Nahargarh Fort in the midst of the Aravalli ranges forming just a perfect view. The stunning beauty of the Jal Mahal seems like floating in the mid of Man Sagar lake completely took my heart.

We spent a great fun time there, had tea and some snacks. I took amazing shots for my vlog and I was just loving the vibe of the entire place. 

After spending enough time, we finally came back to our car and hence completed our trek successfully.

The whole experience was just marvelous and really loved the vibe with this wondering look on my face that Jaipur has a lot of hidden gems yet to be covered.

Points to Keep in Mind

1. Carry a water bottle with you to keep yourself hydrated along with some energy bars or snacks.

2. Wear a good pair of trekking shoes with a good grip as the trails are steep and have uneven surfaces.

3. Maintain cleanliness in nature. Do not throw any garbage in the open. If you plan to carry snacks with you carry the leftover wrappers with you and keep the surroundings clean for our next fellow trekkers.
