Before you go: Rani Ki Vav via Modhera Sun Temple

Best time to go

Nov–Feb

November to February is the time to go, when the Rann is dry and hard and daytime temperatures are mild. Summer heat above 40 °C and monsoon flooding of the salt flats (roughly June to September) make many tracks unusable.
