At Utsav Camp Sariska, every detail is shaped around the land. 18 private accommodations, intimate safaris, and slow rituals make this Sariska camp resort come together as a private invitation into Rajasthan's most evocative wilderness, where the rhythm of the day is set by birdsong, dust trails, and the distant call of the jungle.
Gateway to Indian Wilderness
Sariska is your gateway to the wild on a weekend getaway from Delhi, near enough to leave the city after breakfast and be in forest by afternoon. Once a royal hunting ground of the Maharaja of Alwar, it stands today as one of the country’s most evocative reserves.
Its story is one of quiet rebirth. After its tiger population disappeared in 2004, the reserve was brought back from empty, a landmark act of conservation that has since become a reference point for the country. Across the Aravalli foothills it now holds dry deciduous forest, the storied ruins of Kankwari Fort, and a tiger count that has risen every year since.

A Hidden Gem of Sariska
Older than the Aravallis themselves, Tehla is Sariska’s quiet secret, a landscape shaped slowly over more than 2 billion years. Surreal granite boulders rise out of the scrub, weathered into shapes no quarry could cut, and the roads out of the village lead into some of the least-visited country in Rajasthan.
It is also a living community, one from which over 85% of our team is drawn, making every safari and every meal here a quiet act of belonging rather than a service rendered.
Explore TehlaThe Camp
Built around the trees rather than in place of them, Utsav Camp Sariska holds two things: somewhere to sleep beneath the canopy, and a set of ways to step out into the landscape that surrounds it.

18 accommodations (Forest Villas, Forest Bungalows, and Stone Cabins) woven into the landscape, each a private sanctuary of linen, lantern light, and unspoilt views.

II.
The camp is made for sitting out. Meals from the Forest Lounge spill into the open air, high tea is laid at Baithak, loungers line the pool, and Palash Deck and Buddha Deck hold private dinners, while every room keeps its own patio for the long blue hours after dusk.

III.
Rooms styled in muted earth tones: block-printed textiles, locally woven dhurries, brass detailing, and antique objects gathered from across Rajasthan's old caravan routes.
View AccommodationsOur Experience Philosophy
Three ways into one landscape, all of them led by our own naturalists and shaped by Tehla, the quieter side of Sariska. Mornings begin when the birds decide, the table is picked from our own garden, and more than 85% of the team guiding you is from the villages around the camp.
Our Philosophy
Over 85% of our team is drawn from Tehla and the surrounding villages: a commitment to local families, local livelihoods, and the economy of the land.
Seasonal menus drawn from a pesticide and chemical-free garden: produce picked the morning it is served, nourished by compost and dairy from the property.
Plastic bottles are kept off the property. All trash is segregated and biodegradable waste is composted, a quiet, closed loop in step with the wilderness.
Hundreds of native trees and plants help keep the groundwater table healthy. Linens and towels are changed only on request, a mindful kind of luxury.
Our 100-kW solar installation helps reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, cutting over 200 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Our naturalists and rangers document local wildlife through camera traps and photography, while habitat mapping and indigenous flora and fauna checklists help us understand and protect the ecosystems around Utsav Camp Sariska.
Conservation
A philosophy of mindful consumption shapes every decision at the camp, supporting the natural habitat that surrounds us, and enabling a thriving local ecosystem to flourish alongside it.
Utsav Spa
Quiet hours at the Utsav Spa: ayurvedic oils, herbal poultices, and the unhurried hands of our therapists. A small, considered menu of treatments to mark the rhythm of your stay.
