Hello All, I'm looking for a wee bit of advice regarding a visit to Mt Abu in March. I'll travel there from Kumta (Karnataka) by train. I plan on staying in Mt Abu for around 4 days. Firstly, I'm looking for a guesthouse. As I'm travelling solo I'd love to stay in sociable lodgings. Somewhere with a garden or rooftop cafe would be amazing. My budget is around 300-400 Rupees per night. I'm also hoping to do a little trek from Mt Abu. I've seen that some trekking companies offer 2 day 1 night excursions in the region. Has anyone any experience of trekking companies? Any recommendations or companies that should be avoided? Lastly, does anyone have any advice regarding footwear? Will the terrain require walking boots? I'll travel onward from Mt Abu to Udaipur. I hope I'm correct in assuming I'll be able to easily book myself on a bus for this journey.
