Dhinodhar Hills, Sacred volcanic hills in Nakhatrana Taluka, India
The Dhinodhar Hills rise 386 meters above the surrounding sandstone landscape, featuring black volcanic rock formations with distinct columnar patterns.
In 1821, Brahma-Kshatriya Shethh Sundarji Shivji constructed a limestone and mud shrine at the peak of Dhinodhar Hills to honor ascetic Dhoramnath.
The hills contain a temple with a marble statue of Dhoramnath, multiple shrines, and an eternal flame that represents local spiritual traditions.
Visitors can participate in the annual trekking competition held between December and January while exploring the natural rock formations.
The hills showcase a circular ring structure with a crater-like depression, indicating their origin as an eroded subvolcanic intrusion.
