Dubare Elephant Camp is a result of the joint efforts of the Forest Department of Karnataka and Jungle Lodges and Resorts, Bangalore. Just when the forest department was perturbed with the thought of maintenance of so many elephants since it was amounting to a huge expenditure, Jungle Lodges and resorts came up with a matchless idea that would not just be a money spinner but would also give the tourists visiting the camp a unique opportunity to spend quality time with these gentle giants. If you are as fascinated by this huge animal as many people are, just choose to put up in the cottages of Dubare Elephant Camp for an intimate experience with them. It sure promises to be a one of a kind experience.
Accommodation
The time you spent in the cottages of the camp are sure to be etched in your memories forever. Even though they may not be well equipped with each and every contemporary amenity that features in the rooms of a luxurious hotel, staying in them is a unique experience in every sense of the word, something which cannot be understood when staying in any of the Hotels in Coorg. The ambience is serene and tranquil and though there is no electricity, current is provided in the mornings and evenings with the help of an electric generator. These comfortable cottages come with attached bathrooms.
Dining
The food on offer at the camp is tasty. Sumptuous buffet spreads that include both vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes are sure to please all foodies. Apart from taking delight in well prepared healthy food, the guests can also relax at the licensed bar. The bar is well stocked. Just choose a drink of your choice and unwind. It's also a great place for a friendly conversation with other camp mates.
Other Facilities
This place is ideal not just for witnessing these animals in all their majesty but also to know all that you've ever wanted to know about them. There's a trained naturalist to enlighten the visitors on the various aspects of elephants. Witness first hand bathing of the elephants, feeding them and marvel at the way they follow the instructions of their mahouts. It's a stupendous experience. At the end of it all, the visitors are also taken on an elephant ride in the Dubare Forest Reserve. Another added attraction of the camp is the Coracle boat ride on the river Cauvery. And if you are here in the months of July, August and September, there is yet another adventurous activity in store for you - River rafting in the Cauvery. That also promises to be a very thrilling experience.
So if you love elephants, just plan a stay at the Dubare Elephant Camp and trust us it will definitely be an experience of a life time. In case you are wondering of the expenses, we assure you that it surely won't cost you more than what it would have if you had planned a stay in any of the Budget Hotels in Coorg for a few days.
