A Gateway to Rajasthan’s Wilderness
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Aravalli Hills, Sariska Lodge offers an intimate retreat on the edge of the renowned Sariska Tiger Reserve. Surrounded by lush vegetation, birdsong, and a profound sense of tranquillity, the lodge provides a peaceful escape into one of Rajasthan’s most storied landscapes. From ancient forts and traditional villages to tiger-inhabited forests, the region is rich in both natural beauty and cultural heritage. Once a quiet witness to centuries of history, Sariska Lodge now invites guests to reconnect with nature in an atmosphere of understated luxury.
Private Suites Amid Nature
Winding pathways lead through untamed gardens, where sunlight filters through the trees and the gentle sounds of the forest create a constant connection to the surrounding wilderness. The lodge’s eleven private suites are thoughtfully designed to balance comfort, privacy, and a sense of place. Each suite features its own outdoor space and enjoys views of either the historic Tehla Fort, the Aravalli Hills, or the surrounding natural landscape, offering moments of stillness and immersion in nature.
Cuisine Inspired by Place
The culinary experience at Sariska Lodge celebrates both local traditions and international influences. Menus draw inspiration from North Indian and Eastern spices alongside classic continental favourites, creating a diverse and memorable dining journey. Many dishes reflect the personal heritage of the lodge’s chefs, who incorporate recipes and flavours from their own villages, complemented by fresh ingredients harvested from the lodge’s organic farm and gardens. The result is an authentic expression of Rajasthan’s rich culinary identity.
Into the Wild
Once the setting for royal hunting expeditions, the forests of Sariska are now a protected sanctuary where Bengal tigers, leopards, and more than 200 species of birds thrive. Guided by expert naturalists, guests venture into the reserve on immersive safari experiences that reveal the rhythms of the wilderness. Morning drives follow golden valleys as the forest awakens, while evening safaris unfold beneath shifting light and shadow, offering unforgettable encounters with one of India’s most captivating wildlife destinations.
