CAUVERY
FISHING CAMP (JUNGLE LODGES)
Code
No- AT-KT07
 
Meandering
through the woody landscape of the forests of Karnataka is the
Cauvery, a large and majestic river of South India. Perched
on the banks of this river are the Cauvery Fishing and Nature
Camps, now known as home to the great Mahseer -- the most challenging
and the largest tropical sporting river fish known to man.
Tucked
away from Bangalore city, yet close enough for you to reach
it in two hours, these camps offer a slice of nature that is
unique, rugged, and breathtakingly beautiful - one in which
you can totally feel free! It is also an ideal wilderness retreat
for the (non-fishing) nature lovers and knowledge workers.
Bheemeshwari : Bheemeshwari, the favorite getaway for
day trippers is 100 kms from Bangalore. This place is a sanctuary
to enjoy the calm environs with a dash of luxury. The original
"Mahseer Camp" has grown into an adventure sport too.
Galibore
: Galibore is 95 km from Bangalore, 16 km away from Bheemeshwari.
It is set amidst a wilderness of gigantic Terminalia arjuna
trees, with the river flowing in front, and the hills on either
side of the river. Wild elephants often come to the banks of
the river to drink. There is a great barbecue corner around
which you can have beer while the meat gets grilled.
Doddamakali
: Doddamakali is situated 6 km upriver of Bheemeshwari.
This is the remotest and the most rugged and primitively beautiful
place imaginable. This is where you will learn the meaning of
the word "isolation".
Here the Cauvery stills and collects into a large pool which
is ideal for water sports. Six tents are located here. Doddamakali
is a great place if you are ready to rough it out. Our staff,
of course, will always be with you. This is our base for corporate
team building exercises, conducted through OZONE, the leading
outdoorsmen of South India. There are two ways of reaching this
place - a direct road route, the final part of which is very
steep and needs a four wheel drive jeep to negotiate the last
few kilometers. Alternatively, you can park at Bheemeshwari
and trek 6 km to Doddamakali.
If
you're looking for luxury, settle on Bheemeshwari. There are
8 luxurious ethnic log-huts on stilts, four of which are air-conditioned,
blending beautifully with the surrounding trees. There are also
9 well-furnished tent cottages for those who prefer a more rustic
existence.
Galibore
is the haven for seekers of isolation. There are 10 beautiful
tent cottages, all with attached baths, very clean, illuminated
at night with hurricane lamps. There is no electricity here.
We have created a beautiful, but rustic atmosphere here, which
blends with the environs.
Doddamakali
is another place for isolation and rugged living. There are
six tents here. Doddamakali is the best place if you are prepared
to rough it out.

Cauvery
beckons as soon as you check in. A quick walk to the riverbank
is simply irresistible. Dip your feet in the pristine waters
and you can actually feel the travails of city life fading away.
With the assistance of our courteous and knowledgeable staff,
you can trek through thick forest and scale a series of hilltops.
If you are not too eager on a long trek, do some short nature
walks instead. The most important activity at the Cauvery Fishing
camp is the "Catch & Release" method of Masheer
Fishing or Angling. Even if you are not an expert, you could
try your hand at fishing guided by our expert staff.
Float
down the meandering river on a coracle, indulge in some fishing
for fun, observe 95 species of birds, including rare ones like
the grey headed fishing eagle, spotbilled duck, small pied kingfisher
and the black-bellied river tern. You can also spot crocodiles,
turtles and otters in the water and on land watch as elephant,
deer, wild boar and grizzly giant squirrel wander past.
There's also mountain biking, kayaking and rafting on the river
Cauvery for those who like adventure. If lazing around is your
idea of a holiday, then you could relax in a hammock and read
your favorite book, or have a snooze.
