Phones Down, Binoculars Up: Birdwatching Walk at Sabarmati Riverfront!
Share
Starting July 5, 2025, the Sabarmati Riverfront is hosting guided birdwatching walks every Saturday and Sunday, with morning sessions from 6–8 AM and evening slots at 5–7 PM. These leisurely walks are led by seasoned birding experts and offer participants a chance to observe more than 191 bird species in their natural habitat .
The event stresses digital detox—“phones down, binoculars up”—encouraging attendees to immerse fully in the sights and sounds of avian life. Be it migrant flocks or perennial residents, the riverfront biodiversity, including egrets, kingfishers, herons, and other feathered friends, makes for a rewarding urban nature experience. Plus, the dedicated morning and evening timing captures periods of maximal bird activity and scenic light.
Set against the backdrop of the Sabarmati Riverfront—a green and sustainable development project spanning over 200 hectares along both banks—the walk also showcases how civic infrastructure can support ecological richness. The project’s thoughtful design, featuring parks, promenades, and a biodiversity zone, has made it a vibrant urban wildlife corridor.
These walks are perfect for bird enthusiasts, families, or anyone wanting a mindful weekend retreat in Ahmedabad. Bring along binoculars, wear comfortable footwear, and connect with nature amid the city’s lively riverfront. Book your spot early to reserve your place in this unique, eco-conscious outing!
