Rann Utsav just started for the season and runs through early March, so this is prime window weather for a Gujarat run. The drive into Dhordo from Bhuj is flat, well paved and easy on the DCT, the kind of road where my Creta just settles into cruise and sips fuel. The salt flat itself is the real test though, fine white dust gets everywhere, so I'd get the cabin filter and door seals checked before you go, not after.
You do need a permit for the actual White Rann walk, Indian nationals can book it online now instead of queuing at the Bhirandiyara checkpost, and it's a modest ₹100 for adults per rannutsav.com's own FAQ page. Carry a printed copy plus ID, they do check.
If you're doing the full loop with Mandvi beach and the Kutch villages, give the paint some protection first, salt air and dust are brutal on a fresh Robust Emerald. Worth a read: https://www.moto365.in/p/ppf-or-ceramic-coating-what-each-one-actually-protects-against
Who's planned a Kutch trip before, any ghat.. Sorry, any desert surprises I should know about?
