📍 Dang, Gujarat·10 Jun 2026·8 min read·By GAC Team

Misty valleys, boating lakes, ropeways and forest treks — a full guide to Saputara, the green hill station tucked in the Sahyadri range.

Sitting at about 1,000 metres in the Dang district, Saputara is Gujarat's only hill station — a cool, green retreat in the Western Ghats that feels a world away from the plains.

Top experiences

  • Boating on the calm Saputara Lake
  • The ropeway ride up to Sunset Point for valley views
  • Trekking through the surrounding Sahyadri forest
  • Visiting the Gira and Girmal waterfalls nearby (monsoon)

When to go

Monsoon and early winter are magical — the hills stay green and the waterfalls are full. Summer is pleasant too, escaping the Gujarat heat by several degrees.

Saputara proves you don't need to leave Gujarat to find mist, forests and a proper hill-station morning.
