Galibore Nature Camp
The Galibore Nature Camp, which is tucked away in the Cauvery River's banks' deciduous woodlands, is a good choice for a true sensation of seclusion. It is utterly remote from what we would consider civilization and is named after the windswept mound known as Galibore that towers behind it. Here, the wilderness takes on a richer shade of green due to the surrounding hills.
Anglers who were chasing the mahseer, sometimes known as the tiger with fins, used to love fishing in the Camp's distinctive rapids. Even though you can't fish in these waters, the Camp has a wide variety of other activities. At Galibore, you can see spotted deers, the critically endangered grizzled giant squirrel, marsh crocodiles, turtles, and snakes. With over 230 species of birds, including fish eagles, green pigeons, kingfishers, and owls, birdwatchers won't be let down either.
Our naturalists and staff will be more than happy to provide you with advice and aid in your exploration of nature's more delicate elements. Here, meals are accompanied by a hearty helping of landscape. If you look closely enough from the Gol Ghar, where meals are given, you're guaranteed to see a lot of birds.
Evenings with the grill by the river and the bonfire serve as social gathering points for our visitors. But if you prefer silence, you can choose to chat with the stars while lying back in a lawn chair or sprawled out in a hammock while waiting for your grilled fish, chicken, or vegetables. A hammock is located outside each tent. A secure tumbling net is available for those seeking a little bit more rowdy exercise. The goal at Galibore is to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature and then leave revitalised.
With 200 and more species of rare animals and birds, the forests surrounding the Galibore Nature Camp are loaded with a natural bounty. Even after being located at such a remote location, the nature camp still offers you an array of city-like facilities and amenities. Other than all this, its location along the stream of River Cauvery makes its surroundings even more happening.
