Sunrise Point

Sohna, Haryana, India
Sunrise Point in Garat Pur Bas is a hidden hilltop location that offers the most spectacular dawn views in the Sohna region. Located near the quiet village of Gairatpur Bas, it is part of the rugged Aravalli mountain range. The spot is popular among cyclists and hikers who travel from Gurgaon in th e early hours of the morning. From the top, you can see the vast green canopy of the hills meeting the rising sun. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, with only the sounds of birds and the wind. It has become a favorite spot for yoga practitioners and those looking for a meditative start to their day. The winding road leading up to the point is scenic and popular for early morning drives. During the monsoon, the entire area turns a lush emerald green, making it look like a hill station. It is a no-frills location, meaning there are no commercial shops, preserving its natural charm. Many visitors combine a trip here with a visit to the nearby Leopard Trail. It remains one of the few spots near the city where the horizon is clearly visible without skyscrapers.
