Golf
The aristocracy were enamoured of the gentlemen's game that was so
popular in British India. Unfortunately, the weather did not permit them
the indulgence of creating golf courses in this arid wilderness, and it
was only in Jaipur, as a part of the large scale palace renovations
undertaken by Maharaja Man Singh that a course was added to the city.
Kite Flying
The people of Rajasthan have adopted different sporting events over the
years, and these have provided a great deal of variety to their lives.
Interestingly, there is an eclectic quality to these sporting events
that can range from more sophisticated sports such as golf to the
well-known Rajasthani's passion for kite-flying.
Para Sailing
A sport that is begging to be tried out in Rajasthan, with its open,
sandy countryside, this has so far only been offered by operators who
have brought in their equipment with them.
Polo
Rajputs have been keen equestrian and they take to the horses like a
fish to water. Their taking to polo in big way was only natural. Their
association with polo dates back to the Mughal period and miniature
paintings at the Mehrangarh Fort bear testimony to this early
introduction to the game.
Trekking
The hilly areas of Rajasthan provide several days of ideal trekking
opportunities. The Mewar belt with the Udaipur-Kumbhalgarh-Chittaur
combine, or the area around Mount Abu, or the Sariska-Alwar-Amber belt
is best for trekking.
Vintage Car Rally
When the first motorcars started coming to India, Rajasthan's princes
and aristocracy were among the earliest to order them. These, in turn,
have become the venue for various rallies.
Water Sports
Water sports may appear an alien concept in Rajasthan but the presence
of large lakes has actually made the development of such sports possible.
Ballooning
Visitors can travel short distances between towns or historic resorts in
these hot air balloons. The best, of course, is to coast over fairs such
as Pushkar or Baneshwar or Nagaur in a hot-air-balloon.
Bicycling
The most popular mode of transport in Rajasthan could also provide the
ideal leisure, since traveling on a bicycle is almost therapeutic,
provides exercise without being exhausting, and is certainly inexpensive.
Camping
Camping is a fine art in Rajasthan with established camps in set
locations that would be fit for royalty. Especially created tents
include those with bedrooms, a small hallway or leisure area, and
attached bath.
