staying in forest bungalows built during the British Raj.
These bungalows have basic amenities and are comfortable. A retinue of servants
will provide you with clean linen, towels and toiletries.Dinner and drinks are

areas inaccessible to vehicles. Following traditional briddle paths, elephant
migration routes and game trails, you can view wildlife and birds in their natural
habitat in the virgin forests. Infinity Resorts is a strong believer in eco-tourism
