The Sabarmati Riverfront in Ahmedabad is one of India’s most celebrated urban waterfront developments, turning the banks of the Sabarmati River into a vibrant public destination for recreation, sports, cultural events, and evening leisure. Stretching over 11 kilometers along both eastern and western riverbanks, the Riverfront provides wide, vehicle-free walking promenades, landscaped gardens, water sports facilities, and open-air event arenas that offer a refreshing open space right in the heart of the city.
The Lower Promenade is the main attraction for visitors, providing continuous, barrier-free walking, jogging, and cycling trails directly alongside the water. Renting a bicycle from automated smart bicycle stations or taking an evening sunset stroll while watching the illuminated bridges reflect on the water is a favorite activity for locals, fitness enthusiasts, and couples.
For families and nature lovers, the Riverfront Flower Park on the West Bank (near Ellisbridge) showcases hundreds of seasonal and exotic flower species, manicured green lawns, themed topiaries, and shaded pergolas. During the annual International Flower Show, the park transforms into a spectacular floral wonderland attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors.
Water sports enthusiasts can enjoy boating and water activities at the Riverfront Boating Stations, which offer motorboat rides, family pedal boats, speedboats, and pontoon dining cruises. Sports facilities along the riverfront include dedicated basketball courts, tennis courts, open skating rinks, and football turfs at the Riverfront Sports Complex.
The Sabarmati Riverfront is easily accessible from both Old and West Ahmedabad with multiple parking zones and metro connectivity. Check Tykkit for upcoming riverfront cultural events, marathon registrations, and open-air concerts in Ahmedabad.
