Sand Dune
Welcome to the world of the Thar
Desert, the land of Sam Sand Dunes, of adventure and rugged
expeditions! Explore the undisturbed beauty, the rich culture
and the picturesque sand dunes!
Any trip to Jaisalmer is indeed,
incomplete, without a trip to the most panoramic dunes of Sam
where the wind is unceasingly carving out scenic patterns, on
the sand!
The culture, the people, their way
of life, and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding desert
landscape complement the adventurous spirit. If you've ever
yearned to explore whole new worlds, to experience the ruggedness
of the unlimited expanse of sand, then what could be a better
place to satiate your adventurous spirit than the Sam Sand Dunes!
Situated 42 kms from Jaisalmer, the sun-soaked Sam Sand Dunes
bring to light a glided mirage. Truly the essence of the desert,
the ripples of the wind-caressed dunes create an enchanting
mirage.
The dunes touched by the wind, and
therefore becoming as it were wrinkled, create a mystical picture,
a challenge to every trigger-happy photographer or filmmaker.
Nevertheless, you need a little bit of luck with the clouds,
that means no clouds at all. The best point of time is of course
is sunrise or sunset.
Various cultural programmes are organised
against the backdrop of these fascinating sand dunes. Exciting
desert camel safaris allow you to get the real feel of the desert
on the camel back. By visiting the Sam Sand Dunes, it is possible
to get an insight into desert life from Jaisalmer itself! Camel
rides on the sand dunes are a thrilling experience, as is the
brilliant sunset.
