Question 3

Is Alwar walkable?

Accepted Answer

Alwar’s old town is walkable around the City Palace and Moosi Maharani Ki Chhatri. Bala Qila and Siliserh Lake are farther and uphill or out of town, so not practical on foot.

Auto-rickshaws and e-rickshaws connect the bazaar, railway station and palace area, and Rajasthan Roadways buses run to Siliserh and Sariska. For an easy way to link the fort, lake and countryside, consider a private tour in Alwar.
