Cauvery Fishing Camp, Bheemeshwari







Location - On Kanakpura Road, About 30 km further from Kanakpura
Distance - About 110 km from HAL Airport

The best way to unwind, is to be in the lap of the Nature. What better than Jungle Lodges !!!

The drive to Cauvery fishing camp after kanakpura, itself is very refreshing and scenic. Not traffic. No pollution. Only greenary and clear blue sky. And if it is drizzling, nothing better than that.

The camp is located near Mekedhattu. Once you reach the camp, after the welcome tea, you have some activities lined up like Trekking, coracle ride.
Trekking is ok, not great. Coracle ride is good. They take the coracle to the fast currents of Cauvery river and the ride is an experience in itself.

Swimming is not allowed because of the whrlpools and aligaters. We, though, couldnot spot any :-(

There are a lot of hammocks and nets connecting the trees' branches for lazying around. And believe me, once you are on the nets and hammocks, you wont feel like coming down.

Food served is delicious though the prices of soft drinks, juices and beer are double.)


For night stay, the camp accomodates a few cottages and tents. If you are staying there at night you can enjoy the campfire.


Few other ativities available are river rafting (we couldnt enjoy that as the rainy season had passed) and elephant safari.

Prices for day visit is Rs 850/- per person and night stay is between Rs 1500 to 2000/- per person.

As the camp is usually booked in advance, before going please enquire whether the camp can accomodate you or not.

Ratings - 4 out of 5.
