Camp - Doddamakali .....Where
time stands still |
Doddamakali Camp is situated
6 kms upstream from Bheemeshwari. This place is as remote, rugged and as primitive as any place could be. Hugging the River Cauvery, the Camp is absolutely protected and riparian—sylvan in solitude and great for bird sightings This place is an ideal locale for corporate team building and out outdoor exercises. Keeping the potential of the Camp in mind, Being close to Bangalore, yet difficult to access, Doddamakali was the preferred location to offer corporate houses for their off-sites and outdoor training needs

For
those nature lovers who love the dawning sunrise
hours, breakfast can be a rather quiet treat, as
you relish the magnificent view of the river.
While those who prefer lazing through the day, a
delicious spread of a buffet lunch or dinner is served
at our Gol Ghar, the open-to-sides, circular gazebo.
The dusky evening is for the more spirited and lively,
where you can enjoy a tantalizing barbecue by the
riverside. As night falls, a bonfire is lit to
warm you through the night, where you can swing
leisurely on a hammock, conveniently fixed outside the
tents, or even stretch back on lawn chair. |
