Great Experience
The terrain is not so demanding letting you enjoy the trek without getting tired. Suitable for all age groups. Our trek was a truly enriching experience, marked by its stunning natural beauty and the thrill of encountering the wild. The overall experience was positive. The highlight of the trek was undoubtedly the sighting of fresh tiger footprints. Witnessing such a recent trace of this elusive creature was an awe-inspiring moment that will stay with us for a long time.We did see a elephant herd in the wild. The guides, especially Suresh, were knowledgeable and passionate about the forest. They shared fascinating insights into the ecosystem, making the journey even more captivating. The forest guards, Diwakar, Sivaraj, Joni, and Raju, were equally helpful and ensured our safety throughout the trek. The food and snacks provided during the trek was good. we would recommend booking the 7 AM time slot to maximize wildlife sightings. The early morning hours are ideal for spotting animals as they are more active during this time. If possible, it's advisable to inform the organizers and arrive even earlier to increase your chances of encountering wildlife.
