Untamed Nagzira - OLD TO BE DELETED
About This Experience Nagzira is the dream nature gods dreamt! Nestled between Bhandara and Gondia districts, Nagzira is aptly called a green oasis in the middle of a dry and arid landscape of eastern Maharashtra. The jungle, dedicated to, and named a er Naagdev, o ers great oppo unities to observe and photograph spectacular wildlife including some of the top predators like the tiger, leopard and wild dogs.
Highlights – • Nagzira gets its name from the god Naagdev, the guardian of the forest, and Pongezara, the eternal water source that originates from the hillock of Naagdev temple. • One of the very few places where one gets to stay in the core zone of the tiger reserve. • One of the best places in central India to observe leopards - a rarity in rest of the jungles. • The famous tiger named Jai was born and brought up in the Nagzira Tiger Reserve. • Although Vidarbha is known to be a dry region, Nagzira is covered in lush greenery throughout the year.
The Footloose Factor – We at Footloose Journeys believe in creating value for our campers by taking them on meaningful travel experiences. Along with conducting wildlife safaris and wildlife photography sessions on the camps, we also make sure that our campers learn about the ecosystem as a whole. Through various discussion sessions, documentary screenings, quizzes, interactions with the members of tribal communities, and even interactions with forest depa ment personnel, we make sure that our campers take with them a bagful of beautiful memories and also deep knowledge about the place.
Highlights To give you a more hands-on, rustic experience, we will spend quality time with the locals living in villages close to the sanctuary, ge ing to know the ni y-gri ies of their lives. Through our interactions with them, we will make new friends and gain valuable insight into their lives as we sit under a starlit sky, enthralled by their stories. We will also interact with the forest personnel who work through the year to preserve this unique ecosystem.
We are honoured & proud to have been nominated for the 5th TOFTigers Wildlife Tourism Awards 2018.
