Jawai Bandh is a dwelling of leopards, birds, Hyena, Jungle Cat, Nilgai, Crocodiles, and other animals. It’s an amazing relationship here between the human and the wildlife. In fact in most of Rajasthan the relationship between the animals and the local community of care and affection.  For instance the Bishnoi community and the Black Bucks’.

In the morning enjoy nature walk with packed yet healthy breakfast while devouring on the Tribal belt to start the day.  

This area is full of agricultural farms and cultivation too. A more sustainable world requires contributions from every aspect of our community, including us. The tractors leaving their trails in the moist soil, farmers talking about their daily routine and the crops and the trees sway in the cool breeze. Few local crops grown during this time in the region would be: Maize/Corn locally known as Makai; Pearl Millets locally known as Bajra; Yellow lentils called Moong and Chick Peas known as Chana.

Splendid lunch awaits at the kitchen on your return to the lodge. Rest the afternoon away in the comfort of the suite. Evening Sun downers followed by BBQ dinner will be organized on the hill to let you enjoy stunning sunset.
