Guru Shikhar Temple In Mount Abu
Guru Shikhar is the highest peak of the entire Aravali Range and is located a little more than 15 km away from the city’s outskirts. Perched atop a height of 1722 mts above sea level, Guru Shikhar is a must visit. The views one can have from the top is something to write home about. Having the entire city spread out below your feet makes you feel like you are on top of the world. The lush greenery all around will make you fall even deeper in love with the city.
It is ideal to visit Guru Shikhar in the early morning or late afternoon for panoramic views. Although some honeymooners frequent the Sunset Point in Mount Abu. There are some 300 steps at Guru Shikhar to reach the top of the mountain where a temple and a large bell is located.
There is also a temple at Guru Shikhar in Mount Abu, which is a popular pilgrimage spot for Hindus. The Temple of Guru Dattatreya is dedicated to an incarnation of the Divine Trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. Devotees flock to the temple during festivals and special occasions to celebrate and worship the deity.
There are no actual Guru Shikhar Mount Abu timings for visitors, but the best time to visit it would be during early morning for a fantastic sunrise or towards the evening for an equally beautiful sunset. If you are visiting the beautiful city of Mount Abu, then a visit to Guru Shikhar is a must, so make sure to leave a gap of a couple of hours in your itinerary.
