Dubare Elephant Camp

Get knee-deep in the river with a massive beast in front of you. You scrub, wash, get splashed together. And learn how to control one of India’s most majestic animals. The elephants that take part in the spectacular Mysore Dussehra processions are trained at Dubre, and you can participate in their trainig if you so wish. The camp has 10 comfortable cottages with attached baths. However because it is new and young with attached baths. However because it is new and young there is no electricity-so nights can get very romantic in the darkness with a million stars overhead. If you’re luck, you can even spot a leopard slipping through the trees. The Cauvery, which flows through here, is home to countless crocodiles and fish. Peacocks stalk through the groves and woodpeckers can be heard hard at work. The camp is open through the year but the best time to visit is probably after the rains, when the area is wrapped in clouds of green.
