Rukhad Jungle Camp

About Us

Nestled within the lush forests of Rukhad, just a short drive from Nagpur, you'll find Rukhad Jungle Camp. Our rustic and simple retreat offers four cottages and eight standard rooms, providing the perfect base to explore this hidden gem of Central India. We are a tranquil escape with easy access to the gates of Rukhad Sanctuary, a wildlife corridor between the renowned Pench and Kanha National Parks. Unlike other reserves, our beautiful and dense forests are open to visitors year-round, offering exceptional opportunities to spot wildlife like tigers, leopards, and sloth bears.

Experiences

Experience the magnificent Rukhad forests with our twice-daily jeep safaris, where you can get up close with a variety of wildlife, including leopards, sloth bears, wild dogs, and the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger. Accompanied by experienced drivers and knowledgeable park guides, you'll also find excellent opportunities for birdwatching due to the region's rich biodiversity. For a unique perspective, try a thrilling night safari. As the sun sets, the forest comes alive, offering a rare chance to spot nocturnal animals and birds under a sky full of stars.

Dining

Indulge in unforgettable alfresco culinary experiences that tantalize your taste buds amidst the breathtaking beauty of nature. The multi course menu has been curated by the consulting celebrity chef.
