Other activities like 45 minute bath in the River Cauvery where tourists can give bath to elephants, feeding them with ragi, jaggery, sugarcane, banana and coconuts and a 45 minute elephant ride into the jungle makes your visit at the Camp a memorable one.
During summer, when the water level is low, one has to cross the river on foot to reach the camp. This is a fun experience for kids, however one needs to take caution as the rocks are slippery and people might get injured. During other seasons, when the water level is more, there are boats that take visitors to the other side of the river. Please note that the place gets crowded with people waiting for boat rides and hence it is advisable to reach early.
If you love rafting, rafting is also available in the river beside the camp at nominal fee. This is still-water rafting and can be enjoyed after your visit to the camp.
