If you do not mind treading the path less trodden and would like to visit one-of-a-kind locales rich in geological, cultural, wildlife and ancient human civilisations, Welcome to the Little Rann of Kutch, where the Rann Riders is located. We promote an inside-out style of tourism based on the belief that you may forget what you see and hear, but Little Rann's experience, as we offer, will become memories that will stay forever.
Welcome to The Lodge @ Rann Riders in Dasada, where traditional charm seamlessly blends with modern comforts across our 27 cottages and rooms. Enjoy a diverse menu of local and international cuisine, unwind by our two "Desjouaux" designed swimming pools, or relax in our central lounge. You can explore the vast 4950 sq km of the Little Rann, right in our backyard and rejuvenate at our Wellness Center when you return.
A Refuge for Wildlife and Birds
The Little Rann is renowned as the exclusive habitat for the endangered Asiatic Wild Ass, locally known as the Gudkar. It is also home to Hyenas, Foxes, Jungle and Desert Cats, Wolves, Nilgai etc.
The LRK is a birdwatcher's paradise, with over 250 species, including Lesser and Greater Flamingos, Lapwings, Houbara Bustards, and various Wheatears and Larks, thanks to its wetlands and migratory corridor.
Explore LRK: Wildlife, Wonders, and Safaris
Though the LRK may seem desolate, it is alive with diverse wildlife, including animals, birds, reptiles, and vegetation. Our experienced guides will help you discover the Asiatic Wild Asses, Desert Foxes, and other species in this unique landscape.
Safari options include bird watching in winter, tracking Foxes and Hyenas in summer or observing Flamingos during the monsoon. Choose from Jeep, Walking, Village, Cycling, Horse, Camel, or Custom Safaris tailored to your interests.
Discover Beyond the Desert: Rich Culture Awaits
The LRK region offers more than just desert landscapes. Beyond the wildlife and birds, explore the Modhera Temple, the ancient Harappan ruins of Dholavira, and the vibrant handicrafts of the Mirs, Rabaris, and other communities, known for their exquisite embroidery, beadwork, and appliqué.
Many spectacular, lesser-known spots are also available, with custom tours readily arranged upon request.
