About the campsite
IMPORTANT NOTICE: WE ARE NOT TAKING ANY BOOKINGS AT THIS PROPERTY UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. PLEASE REFRAIN FROM BOOKING. APOLOGIES FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.

The Avalanche Camp is located deep into the Nilgiri Bio-Sphere. Avalanchi or Avalanche remains disconnected from the modern world. It's a place where time slows down and lets you enjoy the little joys of life which you otherwise fail to even notice or appreciate - Sipping hot cup of tea on a cold morning, lying by the bank of a lake and doing nothing, looking up at the sky & counting stars, taking a leisurely morning strolls without having to look at the clock.

Cocooned by thick greenery, a turquoise blue lake & near impenetrable Western Ghats it's a place Google map struggles to locate. Camp amidst lush greenery in tents & explore nature trails, spot animals, take dips in ice-cold waterfalls, picnic in Avalanche Lake. The Campspot is so far removed from the civilization that you can only reach the camp through a 2 hour hike. In other words 'if you do a Google navigation it will take you nowhere'

My sister and I did the weekend camp at Avalanche and we had so much fun. Our group was very friendly and we felt safe all the time. Thanks to the kitchen staff, we had delicious food at the campsite. Thank you Nitish, Moses and Mathew for all the fun activities and for the memorable trip.

I’ll be honest- out of all the thrilling, exciting and magical moments I’ve ever experienced in life, most of them are my experiences with Exoticamp! They are a wholesome bunch of people who have created a large community set around enjoying the great outdoors. I’ve been on many camps where I’ve been introduced to activities I never expected to like and pursue- like hiking, kayaking and rappelling. And the friends I’ve made along the way are too many to count! Life truly does begin at the end of our comfort zone. Come live it with Exoticamp.
