Chhatra Sagar was
originally built in the early 20th C. as the hunting
lodge of the Nimaj Estate. Surrounded by lush green
fields of wheat, mustard, cotton, chilies and vast
pastureland, this hundred year old hunting estate is now
an ideal destination for nature lovers and those wanting
to experience traditional Indian village life in its
simplistic and unfettered beauty.
The tented accommodations of the estate are novel and
sumptuous. On the terrace-like top of a dam overlooking
the lake is a row of spacious tents, each with modern
amenities, fit for royalty. From these tents one can
enjoy breathtaking views of the sunrise and sunset with
the Aravali Hills in the distance.
Period of Operation: October to March. Accommodation at Nimaj is in Deluxe Tents. Owing to warm weather
conditions from the beginning of April and the onset of
monsoons in July, the camp operates only between
beginning of October until the end of March.
Logistic Details : Nimaj is located between Jaipur and
Jodhpur. Total distance from Jaipur is 230 Kms. It’s a 5
hours drive through a comfortable highway. The
picturesque town of Pushkar falls between Jaipur and
Nimaj and is a convenient halt for lunch enroute.
