V Resorts Utsav Camp Sariska

The jungle beckons — all 1,200 sq km of it. If you’re lucky, you might spot a tiger during the safari through the forests of the Sariska National Park. The area is teeming with wildlife — the leopard, sambhar, nilgai, antelope, wild boar, hyena and the jungle cat to name a few. And there are hundreds of species of birds at the reserve too — from the peafowl and quail to the sand grouse and golden-backed woodpecker. A good pair of binoculars is recommended. The resort is just 6km from the nearest gate of the park. It’s time to get in touch with your wild side! 

If you’re just discovering the joys of bird-watching, V Resorts Sariska is a great launching pad. And if you’re a veteran birder, welcome home! Besides the wide variety of species found in the national park, there are some excellent birding destinations within a 5 to 25 km zone from the resort. These include the lakes and water bodies at Ghatada, Malana, Mansarovar and Talab. You can also for a boat ride in Malana lake(seasonal). Among the species found here are the Oriental white-eye, Small Buttonquail, Black Ibis, Lesser Whitethroat, Eurasian Spoonbill, Barn Owl and Common Hoopoe. An in-house naturalist will make it even more memorable.

Sikandra, a town some 50 km from the resort, is know for its sandstone figurines. Buy beautiful sandstone carvings, small artifacts, gate nameplates, garden lights, etc, and fulfil your shopping cravings!

The varied terrain and paths around the resort make it a great cycling destination. If you’re a committed cyclist, you can go all the way to Neelkanth Temple and beyond. But there are plenty of shorter routes to take. From dirt tracks and bushland to rocky surfaces and proper roads, the possibilities are exciting, especially in the cooler and moderate months.

Away from the noise and congestion of big cities, V Resorts Sariska is an ideal place to explore nature. Walk within the premises of the resort or step beyond. Cross farmlands and forested paths, hill roads and bushes, and get educated about the various plant and trees by our in-house naturalist. Rediscover nature and say Goodbye to your Big City Blues.

A short morning walk from the resort will take you to Jahaj, a site frequented by peacocks. Okay, make than many peacocks. Drawn by a mixture of grains and calls by sadhus, the peacocks and peahens descend in their hundreds, swooping down for an early morning snack. It's a sight unlike any other. 

It doesn't get more romantic than this. You're surrounded by forest. Somewhere out there — not very far away — big cats are prowling in the jungle. An unknown bird call pierces the quiet, fresh air. Above, a million stars have blanketed the sky. You're far away from city lights. Dinner is served.

If you've lived long enough in a city, you might be excused for having forgotten how beautiful a night sky is. At V Resorts Sariska, it's time to rekindle your childhood excitement on seeing these mysterious specks twinkling in the sky, forming brilliant patterns at distances impossible to comprehend. We've kept a telescope at a strategic point within the premises to rouse that budding astronomer within.

From wildlife and bird photography to shooting incredible images of landscapes and forts and night photography, you will never run out of subjects, stories and places to record.
