A 1903 reservoir and sanctuary area with hills, temples and birds, dependent on monsoon water levels.
Ramgarh Lake and the Jamwa Ramgarh Wildlife Sanctuary lie about 30 km from Jaipur. The lake is often low, so the draw is the countryside, birds and the Jamwa Mata temple. The road is easy, and the trip fits a half day. Forest department rules apply in the sanctuary area.
