The kitchen serves 3 meals a day, buffet style & the
buffet may be either Indian, Chinese, Continental or

by. The entire camp is on the banks of the river “Ganga”. Please be careful near all water bodies regardless of
whether you know swimming or not. At night the entire camp is dimly lit & hence
needs more care.
SWIMMING/KAYAKING:
Do enjoy the river & silver sand beaches. While swimming or kayaking in the river or even if
you’re simply splashing around, always wear a life jacket. Remember to have a camp member
around you while in the river.

For the period of your stay with us you will be amidst nature at its best. Keep in mind to respect the same.
Please avoid littering the camp & use the dustbins provided instead. Cigarette butts take at
