Mount Abu Travel Guide

Mount Abu is Rajasthan's only major hill station, an Aravalli plateau of granite viewpoints, forest, Nakki Lake and the renowned marble Dilwara Jain temples.

The plateau rises sharply above the semi-arid plains near the Gujarat border. Nakki Lake and the bazaar form the visitor core, while Dilwara, Achalgarh and Guru Shikhar require road trips.
