Are you someone who craves excitement and thrill? Just 100 kilometers from Bangalore lies Bheemeshwari, a haven for adventure enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. Nestled by the majestic River Cauvery, Bheemeshwari offers a perfect blend of adrenaline-pumping activities and serene natural beauty.

At Bheemeshwari Adventure and Nature Camp, the lush greenery teems with wildlife, including over 200 bird species and animals like spotted deer, elephants, and the elusive grizzled giant squirrel. The camp also offers fishing opportunities, especially for the famous mahseer fish, known to weigh over 100 pounds.
For those seeking adventure, Bheemeshwari provides an array of activities. The Cauvery River’s gushing waters offer thrilling river boating experiences, particularly between June and October. For a more tranquil adventure, visitors can enjoy coracle rides in the calmer parts of the river or take a dip in the shallow waters.
Trekking enthusiasts can challenge themselves with a six-hour trek to Basava Betta, where panoramic views of the Cauvery await. Shorter treks are also available, with the option to camp under the stars, enjoy a barbecue by the riverbank, and bond with loved ones—a perfect activity for corporate team-building.


For those who love a physical challenge, the camp features the Inca Walk (Burma Loops), a wobbly rope bridge, and the Mad Monkey Crawl, a two-rope parallel walk. These activities, though simple, provide an exhilarating experience. The camp also offers a “Commando Drop” zip-line, where you can glide 40 feet above the ground like a true commando.
Mountain biking and kayaking are also on the agenda, offering intense, nerve-racking experiences that test both physical and mental grit.
Whether you’re visiting for the lush greenery of the monsoon season or the tranquil riverbanks during the dry months, Bheemeshwari promises an unforgettable adventure for every nature and thrill-seeker.
