Fabulous Ropeway experience. We visited on a lean day and reached the ticket counter around 7:40 AM. Online ticket booking is preferable but we could buy tickets across the counter. Ticket price is ₹180/- per adult for to and fro ride. Advisable to carry exact amount if you are buying tickets in cash. The waiting area is well ventilated and check in is a smooth process. Six passengers are accommodated in one car. The Ropeway is steep yet the flow is good. Enroute, you are able to witness the massive 360 degree view of the landscape and even the entire Pushkar town, the Pushkar Lake does stand out. They stop the cars midway to allow passengers to take a good look at the scenic beauty of the surrounding hills and Pushkar town, which is so much appreciated. We could spot a number of birds namely Indian Robin, Green Bee Eaters and even an Indian Roller during our ride. The distance from the Ropeway station at the Savitri Mata Mandir is a few steps but one has to be cautious of hundreds of Langurs who greet you on your arrival. The approach might appear to be a bit unkempt, yet the mandir complex is very well maintained and clean. After the darshan of the presiding deities, one can afford a lovely birdeye view of the landscape as well as the Pushkar town and Lake from the rooftop of the mandir complex. We loved our Ropeway experience and the temple visit. If you are in Pushkar, this should be on your must do list, for the sheer surreal experience. Ofcourse, on a leaner day. Not sure, how it feels to navigate on a peak season day.
