Adventure trekking
and camping
The gentle scented breeze under a million stars,
the
dinner over a hurricane lamp, the glow of fireflies
and the
backgrounds sonata of crickets,
frogs and nocturnal birds.
Watch the first rays of the sun filtering
through the mist
over the canopy
and listen to the forests coming
alive…
The programme
The programme is
unique in being conducted by a team of poachers who turned
protectors of the forests. The team members are hardy and dependable
with an intimate knowledge of the forest terrain. The programmes are
1 night/2 days and 2 nights/3 days. The first day’s trek starts at
12 noon and ends by noon in the second or third day. The team
consists of a maximum of 5 visitors, 5 guides and 2 forest
officials. Normally 20 to 35 kms. of trekking distance will be
covered, depending on the route chosen.
Here, one may chance to encounter much indigenous wildlife like
Nilgiri langur, giant squirrel, elephant and who knows, even the
tiger! The trek route passes through hills and valleys with a
variety of tropical plants and wide-open spaces. Enroute vegetarian
meals will be prepared and served and country tents will be pitched
for holing up in the night. Trekking groups are accompanied by armed
forest guards with good communication equipments, and geared to face
any emergency situation. Remember to listen to unusual and strange
adventure stories of the former poachers, now your guides and
protectors of the forests.
