What is the trekking route of Kuntalgarh Fort Trek?

The trekking route of Kuntalgarh Fort is scenic and adventurous. the trek starts from the Kheri Gate, Amer which is located at the back side of the Amer Fort. 

Once you walk for 100 meters from the Kheri Gate towards Sagar Lake, You will find a route on the right side. After walking for a few meters you will encounter stairs that will take you to the top of the hill and from there the path will be clearly visible.

The cemented wall that you will encounter while starting the trek from Kheri Gate

After following that path for a few minutes it will see a cemented wall, just climb that wall and keep following it. It will lead you into the deep forest where you need to locate the path. Just keep walking after locating the path and you will find the Kuntalgarh Fort Gate.

The trek path is clear and this route after following the Kuntalgarh fort wall will eventually end at the Chohde Ke Hanumanji Temple. To reach this temple you can read another blog post on Sagar lake Trek in Jaipur.

Kuntalgarh Fort Trek Route

The Kuntalgarh fort trek is special as I planned this trek with some strangers(and after the trek became good friends) who got in touch with me through Instagram after watching my trekking videos on Youtube.

Friends who accompanied me in the Kuntalgarh Fort Trek

We planned this trek on Sunday early morning and we all gathered at Kheri Gate, Amer which is our meeting point.

With no time wasting, we started our trek from Kheri gate and we followed the trek path which I explained above. This is the same trek route that we took for Bhuteshwar Nath Mahadev Trek.

After walking for an hour we reached the Kuntalgarh Fort Gate. We climbed up to the fort wall and relaxed for some time and enjoyed the picturesque landscape of the Aravalli ranges.

Majestic view of Kuntalgarh Fort Wall

Then, we followed the Kuntalgarh fort wall and kept walking and after covering 500meters we came across another beautiful view which looks more like a viewpoint, After talking to a halt for a few minutes we continued our trek and came to a point where there is a steep wall around 8 feet. Somehow we managed to climb up to it and we encountered a breathtaking view of the entire Nahargarh forest.

Somewhere in the middle of Nahargarh forest

We all took a break, had our moment by enjoying a cup of tea and snacks, and had a few conversations with fellow trekkers. 

After taking a break, we started our return journey but the challenge is to find the trail that can take us to a Chhode Ke Hanumanji Temple from that viewpoint. From that viewpoint itself, we found one trail which is a part of the Kuntalgarh Fort wall only.

Following Kuntalgarh fort wall for the return journey

We followed the wall and kept walking and after covering around 1-2 kilometers on the wall we found an exit gate from there there is a trail going towards Chohde Ke Hanumanji Temple. We followed the same path and in no time we reached the temple.

Exit point to reach Chhode Ke Hanumanji Temple

And from Chohde Ke Hanumanji Temple the trail is simple to reach up to Sagar Lake.

Overall Kuntalgarh Fort Trek is one of the best hikes we did in Jaipur and the trail is gorgeous and adventurous which is bliss for any trek lover. 

While exploring every famous and infamous spot in Jaipur, I explored a striking location called Chandlai Lake, which is famous for many reasons, especially for bird watching. The lake has tremendous and exceptional migratory birds giving perfect sightseeing for nature lovers. 

I am sharing all of the required information required to help you plan your visit to Chandlai Lake, so keep reading.

About Chandlai Lake

Chandlai Lake is around 30 kilometers (takes almost one hour) from central Jaipur city, located in the village named Chandlai. The lake has beautiful scenic views to offer especially the early morning sunrise. The lake is the perfect spot for a peaceful and relaxing outing, along with nature with friends and family. 

Chandlai Lake, Jaipur

Besides the view, Chandlai Lake is especially famous for the enormous number of birds, offering the perfect place for bird watching. You can easily witness many birds flying around the lake, creating a perfect view for the photographers.

Chandlai Lake was built in the year 1872, considering the second lake after the Jal Mahal constructed under Jaipur Lake Development Act. 

The main cause of attraction here is the migratory birds, you can easily witness the Flamingos and other colorful birds like Little Ringed, Black Winged Stilt, Common Redshank, White Wagtail, etc. More than 10,000 local and migratory birds are arriving from central Europe, Africa, and China.

A flock of flamingos was spotted in the middle of Chandlai Lake in December month

What is the Best time to visit Chandlai Lake?

The best time to visit the lake is during the Winter Season. The beginning of winter is from November to March. 

This is the time when thousands of migratory birds appear in the lake, giving the perfect spot for a picnic. The place is the best spot for naturalists and photographers to capture the vibrated colored gorgeous birds. 

You can plan your visit in the early morning to have a fantastic view of sunrise along with the birds.

How to Reach Chandlai Lake?

You can reach here via car or two-wheeler vehicle directly from Jaipur main city. The lake is located near national highway 12, four-lane. 

You can plan a family picnic or an outing with friends here and enjoy bird watching.

or If you love cycling this will going to be a perfect place to come on your bicycle and explore the whole lake on it.

Chandlai Lake is surrounded by hump of sand

My Experience of Chandlai Lake

I was so excited to visit this lake as I heard a lot about it and was planning for quite some time back but this place is best to visit in winter.

So I planned this trek in December month in a fine fine weekend. I asked a few of my friends to accompany me on my trip and they agreed to join me on this quest.

We planned to visit it early in the morning as we didn't want to miss the sunrise vibe of the place. So we started off from our home at 5AM as the lake is around 40 Kilometers from my home. I picked up my friends on my way and in no time we reached Chandlai Lake at 6:30 AM.

Early morning vibe of the Chandlai Lake

After reaching Chandlai Lake we started looking to park our car but it was hard to locate the entrance to Lake as its open but no clear way to enter it. So after looking around for some time we managed to find the way from where we can take our vehicle to Chandlai Lake.

Chandlai Lake is spread over a large area and it is surrounded by a hump of sand, So we parked our vehicle around it. As we came out of our car and went close to the lake we are mesmerized to see the beauty of the lake. The vibe is so calm and peaceful as I could clearly hear the chirping of the birds around it and due to winters, there is a lot of fog in the mid of the lake which diminishes the visibility.

We planned to take a walk around the lake and find a perfect place to sit and enjoy the bird watching. After walking for some time we found a place which is a kind of cemented square shape wall on which we all sat and we could clearly see the entire lake in front of us with better views compared to earlier.

Tried capturing birds which were sitting in the middle of the Chandlai Lake

I took out my camera gears to capture some sunrise moments and some beautiful birds sitting around the lake. As the sun rises the visibility of the lake got clear and we started to see a flock of birds in the middle of the lake area. and it's a treat for any bird photography lover to experience the majestic beauty.

Captured a beautiful bird somewhere around the Chandlai Lake

While we were having our moment we found a few more people doing bird watching with their binoculars. I was curious to know more about the birds so I went up to them and we had a little conversation they explained to me a few of the birds and interesting facts about them. You can watch the full video about Chandlai Lake in Jaipur.

The only concern I felt about the lake is the garbage around it, and the water is also smelly. It was not well maintained and there is no effort had been made by Authority to improve this lake. If this lake is taken care of well it could turn out to be one of the most beautiful tourist destinations for Jaipurites.

Lake is surrounded by garbage and has no proper maintenance of it.

Overall it was a very good experience around Jaipur to enjoy the peaceful vibe in the middle of nature.

The trek path starts from the left side of Papad Ke Hanumanji Temple, it is a clear trail and you will easily find it. As you move forward the trail will take you to the open field with lots of trees.

The trail is sandy which increases the difficulty in walking, as you move forward you will find a sandy slope that will take you into the forest. just follow the path and it will take you to the watch tower.

The initial part of the trek trail has lots of sand

You can locate the watchtower on your GPS which will help you out in locating the correct trail. Once you reach the watch tower you will find the trail passing beside it and it will lead you into the dense forest where you will find a water channel, Just follow that water channel it will take you directly to Hathni Kund.

Follow the below route map for reference

Trek Route Map

My Experience of Papad Ke Hanumanji Trek?

We covered this trek on one of the Sundays in the winter season along with a few of my college friends. We all gathered at Papad Ke Hanumanji Temple early in the morning around 6 AM because we don't want to miss the morning sunrise.

As its a winter season we saw a couple of people sitting around a bonfire to keep themselves warm, we too went there and warm ourselves up and had a small conversation with them about the trek route.

We started our trek around 6:15 Am by following a trail passing through the left side of the temple. This trail took us into the forest which is not very dense but we could spot a few peacocks roaming around. As we move forward we got scared as a pack of dogs ran towards us but we didn't move from our place and they all turned out to be friendly dogs.

Trek trail passing through the forest

As we move forward in the forest the trails are hard to find because there is no clear marking which is the correct route that will take us to the Hathni Kund. So we took the help of some local passersby and they guided us to follow the correct path.

Taking help from local passersby to find the correct trek path

As we continued on our path we came across one watch tower and from that point it is showing only 1.5km to our destination but we got confused as we are not sure which path we need to take.

After spending some time figuring it out on the map we found there is one path passing beside the watch tower. So we all agreed and followed on the same path after walking for some time we started hearing the sound of people who are coming from that path.

Watchtower on our way to Hathni Kund

We confirmed our trek path with them and they guided us to our further trail. The trail becomes more beautiful as it is passing through the water channel which got dried as there is no water in it and it is surrounded by big trees and bushes making this trek more adventurous.

Beautiful trail passing through the dense forest

After walking for half n hour we reached our destination and we saw a giant waterfall in front of us, Although there is no water falling from it due to the winter season still it looks gorgeous. 

Climbing big rock which we encountered on our trail

There is some water got lodged in from of it and its stinking. so we found one of the spots where we all can sit and enjoy our moment by drinking hot tea and some snacks.

Having tea and snacks after reaching Hathni Kund

After spending some time there and clicking beautiful pictures we head back by following the same trail from where we came.
Overall this is an amazing trek and we all enjoyed it.

I am here with one more thrilling trek in the city of Jaipur, Ban Ki Ghati, or Band Ki Ghati Trek. This trek can be considered one of the most adventurous treks in Jaipur as the trails are more classy, steep, and tricky than other treks. This is a must-try trek for the adventure lovers of Jaipur. 

The trek viewpoint is excellent and unique, presenting the best view you have ever seen.

So, keep reading to get all of the details required for this trek.

About Ban Ki Ghati Trek

Ban Ki Ghati is actually one of the demolished and under-constructed watch towers in Jaipur. Kings constructed Watch Towers for security purposes and to keep an eye on the invaders and the enemies, I have already covered Amer Watch Tower in my earlier blog post. So if you are interested in knowing about that place and planning your visit there, you can read the blog post on Amer Fort Watch Tower - The Perfect Weekend Trek.

It is said that when the biggest cannon was conveyed to the Amer Fort, it was decided to build the Amer Fort Watch Tower, and hence, the construction of this watch tower was stopped and it remained under-constructed and was left as such.

The view from this watch tower is splendid and worth visiting.

Ban Ki Ghati Trek view point

Trekking Details

Starting Point: The starting point of the Trek is Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple (View in Map)

Trek Completion Time: Total Trekking time is 4-5 hours (round way)

Distance: Trek is 5 kilometers (round way) approx.

Difficulty Level: The trek level is Hard.

What is the trekking route of Ban Ki Ghati Trek?

Ban Ki Ghati Trek is a round trek that starts and ends at the same point which is Sankat Mochan Hanumanji Temple(View in Map).

The trek starts from a small trail which is located opposite side of the temple just after crossing the highway. After walking a few steps you will find a small concrete wall, you need to cross that wall and keep moving forward into the jungle, the trail will lead you to a fort wall that will take you to the first viewpoint of the trek from where you can see the Jal Mahal and beautiful Aravalli ranges.

Climb the concrete wall to find the trek path

From that viewpoint, you will be able to see the final viewpoint which is the watch tower. Just follow the wall and it will take you to the final viewpoint.

For return, take another route instead of the previous route as it is difficult to go down via the same route as it is quite risky. 

The return route starts from the watch tower by following the wall in the opposite direction which passes through the jungle, try to find the path by locating the footsteps and it will take you to the concrete wall at the base of the jungle.

You can cross that wall by taking a path from the right side and it will take you to the same point from where you have started the trek. 

Tip: For reference use the below trekking route and use the GPS to locate yourself in the middle of the jungle.

Ban Ki Ghati Trek Route

My Experience of Ban Ki Ghati Trek?

Although I have covered a couple of treks in Jaipur Ban Ki Ghati Trek is a bit different as I couldn't find much information about this trek on the internet so thought to explore it on my own.

As this trek is in the middle of dense Chulgiri hills, I invited a few of my friends to join me on this trek and they agreed on joining it.

So we woke up early in the morning packed our camera and trekking gear and prepared tea so we could enjoy ourselves after reaching the trek point.

We reached the Hanumanji Temple around 6AM and the rest of my friends. After doing warmup we started our trek journey by following the trek route(which I explained above). 

Trek Starting Point

This trek right from the start was steep and after covering for a few minutes the trek trails lead us into a dense jungle where there is no clear marking. So tried finding the trail and after walking for a few minutes we saw a wall we all took a sigh of relief as this wall is a part of our trek viewpoint.

In the middle of a dense forest with no clear trail marking

So In no time we climbed that wall and keep walking onto it, after walking for a few minutes we reached our first viewpoint and the view from it looked so stunning.

I could clearly see the beautiful Man Sagar lake on which Jal Mahal is floating from that viewpoint, also I could see the Jal Mahal Trek viewpoint which is on a different hill located opposite where we were standing and this is the same viewpoint from which we have already covered in the last trek. You can read more about Jal Mahal Trek.

Trek first viewpoint wall which we need to use to climb to the watch tower

After enjoying some moments we head towards our final trek viewpoint which is still far from where we standing and it is visible from our current viewpoint.

We started walking on the same wall and after a few minutes, it took us to a point where the trek difficulty level got increased. 

Wall that will lead to the watch tower

As the wall is not in the good condition and stones are loosely attached to the wall which is making it hard to walk normally. As the trail got steep we carefully climbed it one by one holding hands of each other and just after that climb we could able to see our final viewpoint which is an abandoned watch tower.

In no time we all reached that watch tower and we were all drenched in sweat and heaving heavily. We all took our moment to enjoy the incredible beauty of the Aravalli hills and the Jal Mahal.

From that watch tower, we could almost see half of the Jaipur and lush green Aravalli ranges. We enjoyed our moment by drinking tea and snacks and after spending some time we head back towards return.

Enjoying our moment on top of the watch tower

Note: Don't take the same route by which you come instead take a different route that starts from the watch tower because returning from the same route could be risky and you might harm yourself. 

Key Points to keep in mind?

1. The total trek distance is 5 kilometers and it will take around 4-5 hours(round way) to complete the trekking. 

2. Carry a water bottle to keep yourself hydrated and some snacks or protein bars for munching. 

3. Try to wear a good pair of trekking shoes with a good grip as the trail is steep and has stones. 

4. Carry a wooden stick with you while trekking into the forest to clear the trek trails and any obstacles. 

5. Maintain cleanliness in nature. Do not throw any garbage in 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.
