Witness the twilight turn into the morning and the first rays of the sun falling over the forest. A chance to find a variety of birds depending on the season. One may spot a blue-bull, a jackal and even a wild hare. Views are amazing and cover great expanses of the forest and the seemingly far reminders of the city as well. Depending on the season, the hues of the forest can be observed to be either a plush green or light brown and seasonally, a variety of flowers and butterflies may be observed. Indicated timings are mentioned for this activity, but the same is flexible (say 6 am to 8 am, on a first come first serve basis). Connect for timing and route options. For best experience in the mornings, we recommend reaching the start point 40-50 min before sunrise. This way the participants can enjoy the sunrise experience deep in the forest. In the winters, later start or an afternoon hike is also great. It is an activity in nature and participants are expected to follow dress and safety rules.

5.00I urge anyone who is tired or stressed... or finding city life too fast to give yourself a treat and sign up. Aravali Hikes is run by Divanshu, who is a passionate believer in the power of Nature to soothe and heal. It is a very inexpensive outing distinguished by its simplicity. It's a sandy walk into the hills. We saw Kingfishers, Weaver birds, nests and experienced tranquility. Go on treat yourself!

5.00Trekking in the Aravalis in Gurgaon was a refreshing escape from city chaos- the trails offer stunning ridgeline views, making you forget the urban sprawl. The team strikes a perfect balance of professionalism and warmth, feeling like a hike with expert friends. Rajesh and DD are safety-focused yet engaging, setting a comfortable pace, regrouping often, and tailoring challenges for all levels—from nervous beginners to confident adventurers. They share insights on native flora and fauna, while enforcing no-litter rules. Thoughtful perks include water breaks, photo stops, and scenic chai halts. Ideal for solos, families, or groups, the manageable routes suit basic fitness, with customizable difficulty options. Pricing is fair for the top-notch guidance and proximity to Gurgaon. Highly recommend for reconnecting with nature’s rugged beauty.

5.00I have been hiking for quite sometime with them and it has been an experience of another level. It has been a mix of many - adventurous, leisure, challenging, exploring and fun. These hikes through different terrains has also prepared me to go on different challenging hikes around the world. The best part of these hikes is it's available during the week and the weekend making it convenient to leave for work post hike during the weekdays. Hiking with them has made me realise what I was missing out on - the natural and beautiful lakes and ponds , the nature so pure and clean, the beautiful birds and jungle animals etc. It's something that I would encourage everyone to try and be a part of.
Feels like you’ve escaped Gurgaon
