Set in the buffer zone of Pench Tiger Reserve, this offbeat eco camp offers a raw and immersive forest experience far from crowded tourist circuits. Surrounded by teak forests, riverbeds, and quiet wilderness, the region is rich with wildlife and known for inspiring Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book. The chance to spot the rare Indian Giant Flying Squirrel, along with diverse birdlife and forest species, makes this landscape both exciting and deeply engaging
For students, this is about living the jungle rather than just visiting it. Walking through forests, cycling along quiet trails, and interacting with local communities helps them understand how life exists alongside wildlife. The simplicity of camp life, combined with hands-on exploration, encourages independence, teamwork, and a genuine connection with nature in its most authentic form.
EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES
Students learn by being present in the ecosystem—reading animal tracks, observing bird behaviour, and understanding how forests function. The experience builds awareness, patience, and curiosity while helping them develop a grounded perspective on conservation, community living, and sustainable choices.
