Bheemeshwari Fishing Camp Day Trip

As we see the Cauvery running on one side. The river was lost to view in between but reappeared after some distance. Vehicles were parked and groups of people may be seen near the water. Our taxi raced through the jungle till we reached the Jungle lodge. The jungle lodge gives certain adventure sports like walking on ropes, coracle rides. They manage fishing camps too. Anglers come here to fight with the mighty Masheer fish. The camp follows a ‘Catch and Release’ policy. Jungle lodge gives accommodation and food too. One may also choose spending only few hours of the day here. (namitasunder.wordpress.com)

We went JLR Bheemeshwari last weekend on a day trip. They charged around 1600 per person for a day visit which start around 10 AM and end at 4 PM. It will include a trek to a close hill, a coracle ride for 5 minutes and one small Burma loop activity which also last about 4/5 minutes. And a lunch which at best may be portrayed as average. There was obviously lots of differentiation between tourists staying for the night and the tourists who are visiting for a day, e. G. Makeshift lunch arrangement for day visitors whereas a correct restaurant type setting for guests staying for the night. (tripadvisor.com)

If it just a chance to get closer to nature, Bheemeshwari Nature and Adventure Camp is just the place for it. A range of adventurous actions from zip line, rope walking, kayaking, etc. Are worth trying. Wildlife that may be spotted in these parts will include elephants, deer, crocodiles, turtles, snakes and about two hundred bird species. But the chief crowd puller is the Mahseer – the biggest tropical gamefish recognized to man. Although you can not attempt catch one here anymore, this elusive monster still exercises lots of clout in these parts. (junglelodges.com)

Well it had been a long time since I went out for a trip with my friends and I desperately wanted a break after few hectic projects in office. My friend from Pune called and said he could be visiting Bangalore for a day and was born the idea for a weekend trip. My friend was Available for just a day and overnight stay wasn’t possible, so all the far-away places like Chikmagalur & Coorg were ruled out. After much discussion and research online for day trip we narrowed down to Bheemeshwari Fishing camp run by Jungle lodges. We heard it was a good place for one day outing. We were planning to cover Mutathi/Mekedath on the way to the resort but caused by time constraints we decided to directly go to the fishing camp. (rajivc-food-travel-life.blogspot.com)

JLR’s Bheemeshwari Fishing Camp is a perfect base for anglers in pursuit of the Mighty one. The fishing season here is throughout the months of November, December, January and February. Guests are provided with a local guide or ‘gillie’ for each two visitors. Gillies help anglers with their knowledge of the waters and are experienced fishermen themselves. They also are adept at using the coracle boats native, round boats made out of buffalo hide and can move guests from place to place in the waters. JLR gives the coracles to cross the river and also to help with the landing of fish. (lifeisoutside.com)

This is a great news for wild life lovers! None of us had any intention of going for fishing. If you want to go fishing here, you have to get your fishing stick or you may be able to rent one with the authorities. After snacks and tea in the evening around 5. 30 pm we headed back towards our bus. We had a surprise guest waiting for us to bid bye… It was none other than the ‘Grizzled Squirrel’. There was an environmentalist who told us that, spotting this squirrel is rare in comparison to spotting a tiger in a forest. (mohanbn.com)

This trek is rather a short one, however don't confuse it with cushy. The big boulders and steep path are sure to drive your calm spirit crazy. A large range of pickup points enables you to choose a closest one to board. Pickups will start covering from the starting point at around 6:30AM. Chomp on some delicious breakfast at Ramnagara. Restocked with some strength, start your journey to Kunti Betta. The almost 2 km trek is fun-filled and exotic. Reach the crest of the hill pompously. Enjoy the serene beauty and don't mistakenly forget to carry your dear camera, the picturesque scenery may make you regret. (escape2explore.com)

We were almost 12 of us and the complete group had lots of fun with the actions. Everyone of us loved the place and made plans for longer stay next time. The staff took care of our small needs, the property is well maintained and the view and serenity of the place is amazing. The weather was quite hot but still worth the stay and the experience. Best part is its so close u don’t realise you have already reached it. (tripadvisor.co.nz)
