June to
September
The climate is invigorating, the forest lush, tender and
green. Game spotting is at its peak. As we are located in a rain shadow
area, we do not receive torrential rainfall. Our monsoon is characterized,
rather, by short spurts of rain, strong wind and temperatures between 160 celcius to 280 celcius.

A good pair of
walking shoes is a necessity. Jeans or tough trousers and a windcheater
will save your hide should you should choose to walk through bush. If you
prefer short walks or plan on lazing it, though, shorts and a T shirt
should suffice. Oh - and don't forget your umbrella! |

October
and November
In this season, you should see plenty of wild life, as the
undergrowth thickens for the winter. The temperatures range from 130 C to 210 C.The mornings are misty, with the clouds sitting on
the mountain ranges. The North-East Monsoon sets in and is through by the
end of November.

A sweater may be
required. You will definitely need an umbrella or a raincoat, and a tough pair
of shoes to help you over wet ground and rocks. A couple of pairs of socks
would be a good idea - and a second pair of shoes in case you decide to
walk into a puddle. |
 |
December
and January
Our winter boasts clear blue skies, cool, starry nights and
sunny days. Temperatures drop significantly. Mornings are generally misty.

The air is a bit
nippy, and a sweater would be a good thing to have with you. We do offer
the more exciting option of a bonfire on clear nights, though. |
 |
February
to April
The advent of summer is characterized by dry warmth. The
deciduous forest is bare. Game is usually spotted around water holes. There
are often small forest fires, which burn some of the undergrowth by day,
only to be extinguished by dew at night.
|
Attire: Light clothing,
sun glasses, hats and sunscreen would be appropriate. Again, don't forget
those walking shoes and trousers! |
 |
May: Weather is uniformly unpredictable - Pre-monsoon showers, warm days that draw in clouds, thunder bolts, short blasts of rain - and the jungle comes alive . The vegetation revives and sprouts fresh shoots . The birds sing louder. All in all the flora and fauna come alive.
|
Attire: Light clothing (think Baywatch) with sunscreen lotion (think sunburn). |
