Kabini River Lodge (KaraPur)

Devbagh Beach Resort( Karwar)
Kali River Lodge(Dadeli)
Cauvery Fishing Camp
K.Gudi in B.R.Hills
[Reservation]

This is an unmatched combination of holiday at a hill-station and an opportunity for exploration of the wildlife. The resort is located in the heart of the Biligiri Rangaswamy Sanctuary (B R Hills) at K Gudi, just 90 km. from Mysore, on a hilly terrain at an altitude of 3300 ft., (to 5000 ft.,) above sea level.

At the camp, the deciduous, evergreen and grassland forests engulf you and put you right in the middle with the wild animals and birds that the jungle is home to. The forest is at its best greenery during June to November and wildlife is sighted round the year. A unique feature of the camp is that there is no electricity in the tents and the log-huts. Electricity, however, is provided in the hunting lodge between 7pm to 10.30 pm. As the night falls and the stars shine, the resort lights up with hurricane lamps, a magical transformation.

Travel Advice

  • Language is an issue here, so carry a Kannada-English phrasebook. This is available all over the footpaths of Bangalore and costs about Rs 30.
  • Carry some dry snacks that you prefer just incase you suddenly feel the need for some junk food.
  • A wide-angle camera is a good idea
  • comfortable and rough clothes for those rugged safaris
  • Best season to visit: Its open throughout the year, but the best time to sight the wildlife is during the month of November uptill January. For people who love to see that lush green forests then the time would be between the months of July and october.
