Rajasthan is one of India’s most captivating states, famed for its Rajput forts and palaces, desert villages, spice markets and the warmth of its people. However the deserved popularity of RajasthanÃs key sights sometimes leaves scant room for a sense of adventure. Travelling by bicycle is the perfect antidote to this and, as well as some of the big drawcards like Jodhpur, Rankapur and Udaipur, our back-road discovery takes us through barren desert and lush oasis to remote villages where traditional Rajasthani life continues untouched by the outside world, as it has done for centuries.
The exact back-country route we take between Jodhpur and Udaipur is a closely guarded secret, but distances broadly achievable. Along the way we take rest stops at the principal attractions as well as at a few places where you’ll have the chance to experience rural Rajasthan firsthand. Indeed you may well find that the highlight of your tour is a chance encounter with a pink-turbaned man miles from anywhere, or maybe a shared Rajasthani family moment. That is the beauty of this trip!
