Galibore Fishing and Nature Camp is
tucked away literally far from the maddening
crowd, deep in the deciduous forests about ten
km from Sangam, on the banks of the River
Cauvery. There is no habitation of any kind for
miles around and the only sounds are the
birdcalls and the whistling of the wind. Indeed
the place gets its name from a windy hillock
called Galibore, situated just behind the
camp. |
|
The Camp is in the middle of wilderness
overlooking the River Cauvery, surrounded by
hills. The Camp itself is covered with trees
lining both sides of the river. This is indeed a
rough country. This is ideal for those who want
total privacy and no crowd. |
|
| ACCOMMODATION |
 |
This Camp has 10 luxurious tented cottages with attached bath.
However, there is no electricity here. We provide only hurricane/ solar lamps, which add to the rustic nature of the place. Located sufficiently away from any habitation, Galibore offers complete peace and tranquility. |
|
| FACILITIES |
|
Sit back under a gazebo and tuck into a
buffet lunch or dinner, among other hungry souls
like you. While breakfast is generally a quiet
affair, as you savour the view and the natural
ambience along with the food, the evening
barbecue by the riverside is more spirited and
lively. As twilight dissolves into the night, a
bonfire is lit and while you recline on a lawn
chair or swing leisurely in a hammock,
preparations are afoot for the barbecue - of
grilled chicken, fish or
vegetables. |
|
Hammocks are fixed outside each tent and
hut for those who would like to laze or read a
book in the open. A safe tumbling net is
provided for guests to have a rollicking
time. |
|
| ACTIVITIES |
 |
Once here, your main preoccupation would be coracle rides on the river, hiking the jungle trails, joy fishing or lazing in hammocks under the green canopy of venerable old trees lining the riverbank. A walk along the riverbank will rejuvenate your tired spirit and body. Bird watchers will find the riverbank and its surrounding woods an avian paradise.
Galibore is a very popular angling camp and professional anglers visit the camp during the season. Anglers bring along their tackles and gear to hook the Mighty Mahseer. As a principle, we strictly adhere to the ‘catch and release’ sport fishing policy , which involves realizing back the Mahseer, a threatened spices, into the river after taking its photographs, weight, etc., |

| LOCATION |
|
Exactly hundred kilometers from Bangalore, a signpost at Kanakapura guides you
to turn left into a village road that'll take
you to Sangam, the confluence of the two rivers
Arkavathi and Cauvery. From here, following
another signpost, it's a short drive of about
ten kilometers on a gravelly track, through some
desolate, wooded terrain, to the Camp. Though it
is an unmetalled road, we have ensured that cars
can reach Galibore. By the way, this place is
6km down stream of Muttatti
village. |
