Temples, Jungles & Trains
Cross India from east to west, enjoying the incredible history, religion, remote jungles and wildlife along the way.
Set on the river Banjar just a short drive from Kanha National Park, Flame of the Forest provides comfortable accommodation and memorable safaris and experiences. With just four rooms positioned away from the main stretch of accommodation options in the area, you’re ensured to have a peaceful, exclusive and personalised stay.
Not only can you witness the everyday wildlife around the camp, but on a safari within the park. All safaris are guided by English speaking naturalists who bring the jungle to life. Set off on in your jeep for sunrise or sunset to ensure the best chances for spotting the majestic wildlife. The property has a close involvement with the National Park conservation and local village life, and offer other authentic, alternative experiences as well. You can head out on a stroll through a local village, admire the colours and produce at the local market if you’re there on a Wednesday or do some a yoga class back at the camp.
Their aim is to provide a holistic, healing environment in which travellers can immerse themselves in nature, the natural beauty of India and healthy, local food. Food served is organic and locally grown, and the chefs serve up delicious traditional Indian cuisine. Enjoy your meals outdoors, and sit by the campfire in the evenings to share your stories with other travellers and staff.
Rooms all have their own courtyards and verandas. Inside, the stone floors and whitewashed walls provide a cool, relaxing space to retreat to. The outdoor daybed is a lovely spot to relax or perhaps even spend the night under the stars!
If you’re looking for a small property that will provide you with a relaxing, peaceful stay during your time in Kanha National Park, Flame of the Forest is an ideal choice. While it may not be overly luxurious or have facilities like a swimming pool, you can be assured a more personalised stay. Due to there only being four rooms available, they can book up quickly!
