Tucked away close to breathtaking gorges, valleys and lush greenery, Kali Wilderness Camp, Dandeli, represents the ultimate paradise for nature lovers. At a distance of 481 km from Bangalore and 125 km from Goa, Dandeli is well connected by road and easily accessible from Delhi, Bombay, Pune & Hyderabad as well. Situated on the banks of the majestic Kali River, this wilderness camp is one that combines the vast ruggedness of the jungle with the reassuring comforts of home. Dandeli offers plenty of opportunities, and will leave you enthralled with the unfathomable mystery of nature. The number of places and the variety of activities that exist here are limitless. Stay with us for a while…who knows, you may never want to go back again!

Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary, spread over 400 sq km of bamboo and moist deciduous trees, is located on the border of Goa and Karnataka. The park is rich in flora and fauna where nature’s eternal show is on display. Dandeli’s pristine and captivating landscape offers thrills rarely seen elsewhere. Rich, hilly forest terrain, deep river valleys, and meandering rivers make for a superb trekking experience with the fragrance of thyme and basil permeating the air. The  Kali River dominates Dandeli, be it from its banks or from atop a mountain. The magical pull that it exerts over each visitor here is to be experienced to be believed. 

Dandeli (475.02 sq. km) was declared a wildlife sanctuary on 10th May 1956, but at that time covered only 204.33 sq. km. This was enlarged to 5725.07 sq. km on 10th May 1975. This was too big to manage with the industrial and mining pressures and it was reduced to 834.16 sq. km on 31st August/1st September 1988 and further to its present size on 29th April 1994. A relatively undisturbed area of 250 sq. km. in the southern part of the sanctuary became Anshi National Park.

Wildlife 
Mammals in the sanctuary include elephant, gaur, wild pig, sloth bear, tiger, leopard (black panther), wild dog, jackal, slender loris, common langur, bonnet macaque, sambar, spotted deer, barking deer, mouse deer, Malabar giant squirrel, giant flying squirrel and mongoose.

Location: 470 Kms from Bangalore

Activities
The serene and calm face of Kali can be experienced when you go on a ride in the native, saucer-shaped boat called coracle.  This is just the right time for bird watching along the banks, especially the hornbills, criss-crossing the trees and also for spotting a few crocodiles basking in the sun on the nearby rocks.  River Kali has two faces.  For those who really ant to feel the fury of its cascading waters and experience the thrill of white water rafting, this is the place to be.  The camp offers true adrenalin-rush rafting on River Kali, with very high safety norms to boot.  The Camp also offers adventure activities like kayaking, canyoning ( Rappelling down a waterfall ) and mountain biking too.
