Why to visit Hiking at Guru Shikhar
The Aravalli Range's tallest peak, Guru Shikhar, is located around 15 kilometres from Mount Abu. The Aravalli range and the hill town of Mount Abu may be seen in magnificent detail from the peak's height of 1722 metres above sea level. Guru Shikhar, which translates to "the peak of the guru," was given that name in honour of Guru Dattatreya, who is thought to have lived there when he was a monk. In honour of him, the peak's cave has been transformed into a temple. Mount Abu Observatory is also located in Guru Shikhar.
You would need to climb a few steps to get to the top of Guru Shikhar Peak after a 15-kilometer drive. The weather becomes more overcast and foggy when visited in October and November. An ancient bell with the words "1411 AD" engraved on it sits atop Guru Shikhar. After making the long ascent to the top, ringing that bell is like declaring your success to Mount Abu's valley. The bell's chimes echo far and wide.
Hikers are drawn to the mornings for two reasons: the magnificent dawn and the breakfast that is offered by the businesses. The stores along the hike's path offer extremely great breakfast items as well as tea that is well-known. You can eat well at any time of the day and, if you're in the mood, gorge on your usual brand of bagged chips and chocolates. There are also stores that provide lovely trinkets for sale. If you're travelling with family, consider organising a picnic at the summit. Everyone has many opportunity to take pictures of the view. This can be combined with a trip to the Dattatreya temple, which will give the whole thing a spiritual undertone.
