Nagarahole is a never ending enchanting place, due
to its collection of wildlife- four horned antelope,
panther, warblers, hornbills spotted deer, mouse
deer, pangolin, gaur, giant flying squirrel. And if ever
you get lost amongst them, there is no need to
panic. The Jenu Kurubas (Honey gatherers) and the
Betta Kurubas (Hill tribe) inhabiting this park are
always ready to help you, with a warm smile.
Nestled in the southern fringes of the Nagarhole
National Park, the Kabini River Lodge is a
perfect getaway for nature lovers. The
breathtaking locale with the tranquil backwaters
of the River Kabini presents an ideal setting for
a long-awaited vacation. Once the hunting
lodge of the erstwhile Maharaja of Mysore,
Kabini River Lodge is today rated by the British
Tatler's Travel Guide as one of the top 5 wildlife
resorts in the world. Kabini is pure elephant
country as one can see numerous herds at a
time. However, the blaze of the elusive tiger
always haunts you as you roam through the verdant jungle here. Once widely
known for the mass elephant-trapping operations called 'Khedda', Kabini stands
as the one of the brightest beacons for wildlife preservation in India today.
