Haldighati is a historical mountain pass between Khamnore and Balicha village situated at Aravalli Range of Rajasthan in western India which connects Rajsamand and Udaipur districts. Haldighati also known as Haldighati Darra.The pass is located at a distance of 44 kilometres from Udaipur and 367 kilometres from Jaipur. The name 'Haldighati' is believed to have originated from the turmeric-coloured yellow soil of the area. The mountain pass is a significant historical location. Rakt Talai in Khamnore is the site of the Battle of Haldighati, which took place in 18 June 1576 between of the Kingdom of Mewar and the Mughal Army led by Kunwar Man Singh.
