Wild India Camps' Bagh van, just 5 minutes from the entrance of the Reserve at Turia and 15 minutes from the turn-off on NH7 at Khawasa, is hidden away amongst the thickly wooded banks of a seasonal stream which, in the dry season serves as a pathway for tiger, leopard and other animals inhabiting the fringe of the forest.

The charm of the old forest rest houses has been blended with modern conveniences in our picturesque and comfortable cottages. Each unit in the cottage is completely independent with bedroom, bathroom and verandah designed to blend into the environment and enhance one's sense of being in the wilderness.

The entire design as also the operation of the lodge is focused around eco-friendly practices - harvesting of rainwater, recycling liquid waste, minimum use of organic fuels, our own fuel-wood plantations for campfires, careful disposal of waste, maximum use of recycled and degradable materials and close association of the local community in our operation. Our Kitchen is open to all guests to experiment with the local ingredients and possibly rustle up a sumptuous meal.

The main dining and lounge area is a pleasant blend of open and enclosed spaces, admitting light and air into an atmosphere of warmth and conviviality. Little nooks and alcoves offer themselves for you to find some private space. Our friendly and efficient staff will round off the perfect wilderness experience.
