Umaria Safari Camp: Rooted in the Kanha Wilderness

Canvas, corridor, and the kind of quiet that the Sal Forest keeps all to itself. Our safari camp near Kanha National Park sits on the edge of the Kanha-Pench Corridor. Our tented accommodations and colonial-inspired character are rooted in the romance of Central Indian safaris from a bygone era. The jungle presses in from all sides, one of the country's finest tiger reserves stretches out beyond the treeline, and the camp was built to leave as little a mark on the land as possible.

Conservation is not an afterthought here. It is the foundation on which every decision is made, from the design of our camp to the respect for the corridor at every hour. Our stays are warm and considered. Our dining is unhurried and shaped by the forest. Our experiences follow the rhythm of the land. The facilities are in place, so nothing competes for your attention. The wild is waiting—come find it.

Flavours Beneath the Canvas

The best part of any safari is coming back to a proper meal. At this camp, that meal is served under canvas with the jungle for a view and a kitchen that moves across Indian, Chinese, and Continental traditions. On select evenings, dinner shifts to the pool deck, where the open sky takes over, and the corridor sets the mood.
