The Indian Desert (Thar Desert)

The Thar Desert, also known as the Great Indian Desert, stretches across Rajasthan and parts of Gujarat, offering a mystical blend of golden sand dunes, royal heritage, vibrant folk culture, desert wildlife, and ancient trade routes. Known as India’s gateway to desert adventure, the Thar is a land of timeless beauty—where camel caravans, star-lit nights, folk music, and majestic forts create an unforgettable travel experience. With TravelEdge, discover the desert like never before through curated desert safaris, luxury camps, cultural tours, dune adventures, and immersive heritage journeys.

Spread across over 200,000 square kilometers, the Thar Desert is one of the most culturally rich deserts in the world.
