How to Reach Pushkar

A tiny, hidden town in Rajasthan, Pushkar is situated near the Aravalli Hills and exudes a distinctive enchantment. Tourists explore Pushkar due to its divine Pushkar Lake and Brahma Temple and annual Pushkar Camel Fair so this small town caters to religious pilgrims alongside backpackers, photographers and solo visitors.

The road trippers should consider visiting Pushkar together with the must-see destinations of Jaipur, Ajmer and Ranthambore.

Travelers who use the railway system need to visit Pushkar Terminus since it functions as the town's station yet offers minimal connectivity with few available trains. The majority of visitors choose to arrive at Ajmer Junction because it offers more connections throughout India.

The central rail station of Ajmer Junction connects major rail routes between Delhi and Ahmedabad and connects Jaipur to Ahmedabad through Marwar.

Passengers can only travel on short local train journeys and time-limited festival transport services at Pushkar Terminus.

It is more convenient to book tickets for Ajmer first before traveling to Pushkar through cab or bus services from that terminal. The transport method provides better speed alongside better convenience during travel while allowing more adaptable options.
