Kalo Dungar

Also known as ‘Black Hill’, this is the highest point in Kutch and is the only spot in the city from where you can get a bird’s eye view of The Great Rann of Kutch. 25 kms north of Khavda, the top of Kala Dungar i.e. the Black Hills is the highest point in Kutch, at 462 m, where you feel like you are at the edge of the earth.

Admire surreal vistas from a height of 1,516 feet and pay obeisance at the famous 400-year-old Dattatreya Temple dedicated to the three-headed incarnation of Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva.
