Bheemeshwari Jungle Lodges | Awesome Day Trip From Bangalore
Written in 2022. Prices, timings and routes may have changed since; check before you go.
When to go Bengaluru through the year
Easiest: Jul, Nov to Feb. Tap + for the month-by-month weather and where these numbers come from.
- January: Easy. Daytime about 29°, night about 14°. Rain: dry, about 5 mm.
- February: Easy. Daytime about 32°, night about 15°. Rain: dry, about 4 mm.
- March: Mixed. Daytime about 35°, night about 18°. Rain: dry, about 16 mm.
- April: Mixed. Daytime about 36°, night about 21°. Rain: some, about 39 mm.
- May: Mixed. Daytime about 33°, night about 21°. Rain: wet, about 125 mm.
- June: Mixed. Daytime about 29°, night about 20°. Rain: wet, about 104 mm.
- July: Easy. Daytime about 28°, night about 19°. Rain: some, about 100 mm.
- August: Mixed. Daytime about 28°, night about 19°. Rain: wet, about 148 mm.
- September: Mixed. Daytime about 28°, night about 19°. Rain: wet, about 138 mm.
- October: Mixed. Daytime about 28°, night about 18°. Rain: wet, about 143 mm.
- November: Easy. Daytime about 27°, night about 17°. Rain: some, about 80 mm.
- December: Easy. Daytime about 27°, night about 15°. Rain: some, about 36 mm.
Nilabh: Mild all year, but not equally easy. December to February is the driest and coolest, 27 to 32° by day with nights near 15°. March to May is the hot stretch, up to about 36° in April, and the rain returns in May and stays until October. For anything outdoors near the city, I'd plan around the cool, dry months.
Ten-year averages (2015 to 2024) from NASA POWER satellite data. Conditions change; check before you go.
Where do these numbers come from, and how far can you trust them?
The figures come from NASA POWER, a free NASA project that publishes weather estimates for every point on Earth, put together from satellites and weather models. We took every day from 2015 to 2024 for this place, and averaged each month: the usual daytime high, the usual night low, and the rain.
We compared it with official weather-station figures for a few places. Over flat land it matched closely; in the hills and on islands it can be a few degrees out, and then the strip says so.
Easy, Mixed and Hard are our rule of thumb, not a forecast. Hard means days above about 37°, rain of about 250 mm a month or more, or nights close to freezing. Mixed means days above about 32°, rain over about 100 mm a month, or cold nights (below about 8°). Easy is everything else.
An average is not the weather on your dates, and it knows nothing about festivals, crowds, road closures or this year's monsoon. Check a forecast a week before you go.
Bheemeshwari Jungle Lodges– Got bored from Bangalore urban life? looking for a nearby and quick drive out?
A plan to the Bheemeshwari day trip wouldn’t be a bad idea. Bheemeshwari resort would give you the experience of living in the Jungle and on the bank of the Kaveri river.
If you are in Bangalore and dreaming of a quick gateway for a weekend hangout, there’s no dearth of such places, all you have to be is a bit adventurous, plan, and leave Bangalore limits before roads start getting choked
Bheemeshwari is the nearest adventurous gateway near Bangalore and closer to what a nature resort with in-house activities can offer.
Located at a distance of about 100 km from the capital city of Bangalore. It is a perfect place for trekking and sightseeing as it is blessed with immense natural beauty and spectacular landscapes.
Things to Do in Bheemeshwari Jungle Lodges
- Zip Line
- Rope walking
- River Rafting (dependant on season)
- Kayaking
- Coracle Ride
- Fishing- Known for Mahseer – the largest tropical gamefish known to man
- Trekking & Forest Walk
Located on the banks of the River Kaveri and in the middle of dense forests, Bheemeshwari is surrounded by lush greenery and picturesque hilltops; it is one of the most beautiful tourist destinations near Bangalore.
Whether it’s an action-packed adventure or just a chance to get closer to nature, Bheemeshwari Nature and Adventure Camp run by Jungle Lodges and Resorts (JLR) is just the place for it.
We booked our stay with TheKarnatakaTourism (Unit of Dandeli.com); they have an exclusive partnership with Jungle Lodges across Karnataka at the best location.
I would recommend my readers to check the new UI/UX site of TheKarnatakaTourism for planning and booking the stay at the most competitive rates and have a memorable experience that will surely last for a long.
The camp has luxurious log-huts on stilts, well-equipped tented cottages (twin beds with attached bathrooms), and luxury cottages, log huts, and a bamboo hut situated bang on the Kaveri River.
These jungle lodges go well with the surroundings and offer the best of amenities. The rustic-looking lodges offer spacious rooms and contemporary interiors which are a complete contrast to their exteriors.
The lodges are best finished with experience to explore the forests along with enjoying some adventure activities such as Kayaking, Ziplining, Camp Fire, Burma Loops, Cat Walk, Elephant Walk, River rafting, Coracle rides, or even gentle kayaking on the placid waters of Kaveri.
The best experience would be a nature walk in the morning to the top of a small nearby hill, it’s a 1hr trek (moderate) guided by experienced resort staff, the fantastic view of Kaveri and her path is breathtaking, with numerous sights of birds.
These lodges are the best place for kids because of numerous outdoor activities for learning some good lessons. I found the lodge’s staff to be polite, experienced, and well trained to handle the guests, however, do expect a great rush on weekends, and then the services might be delayed. Evening campfire on the bank of the river is another best experience to have.
However, there are few things to remember while going to the lodge and within the lodge, do make every bit in reaching the lodge before evening.
The lodges are located in the middle of the forest and so the roads are narrow and in bad shape, there is a Monkeys’ menace in and around the stay. Please secure your belongings, take care of your Kids, and never disturb those creatures.
Rest assured; it’s the best and quick gateway from Bangalore and Mysore for a lifelong memorable experience.

My Takeaway
I will definitely recommend Bheemeshwari Jungle Lodges from Bangalore either for a day trip or overnight stay, however, please do note that the place is strictly for nature lovers as it is in the middle of the forest and the Kaveri river flows through it.
You will be blessed to have this view and loads of Instagram-style photos. However, the lodge and the place are not suitable for partygoers and who are looking to disturb the precious flora and fauna of Bheemeshwari.
I will recommend you to move ahead in case you or on a day trip and check out this most remote and adventurous place around called Dabbaguli. The place is only suitable for one who wants to explore new places and do not fear getting lost too :)

Very nicely written !!! Keep up the good work.
Kanakpura hosts several adventure sports in Bangalore; among all these, paintball has been gaining the most popularity with the city dwellers in the recent times. Though located within a close proximity to the main city, the locality showcases a contrast between city and rural life.
Great post, I was looking for something like this one.
Very informative post, thanks for sharing this.
Waiting for more like this from your side.
