The Marwari horse is an indigenous species, hardy, agile and among the notables in world breeds. In addition, the Kathiawadi and Sindhi horses are also adept at traversing the desert country side.
Safari starts from Kumbhalgarh an ideal trail with hilly terrain and forested countryside and moves from the vicinity of one old fort to another.
