The famous Jungle Book character Mowgli was a wolf befriending boy from the tribal village of Pench. If Mowgli could enliven his escapades, Pench tree lodge would be his time warped home in 21st century. He could certainly somersault with the monkeys here or luxuriously laze under the shade of Mahua Tree, in the comforts of stylish, spacious and snugly tree houses set in regal landscapes. Later, deciding to set out on a Jeep Safari to meet 'Shere Khan' the Tiger and 'Baloo'-the Bear and check on his troop of 'Bander log'– monkey folks and all other good old friends from Pench national park. Pench Tree Lodge is the refuge of the au courant, adventurous and eco sensitive 'Mowgli'. Our six well appointed tree houses are perched in the undisturbed 16 hectares of forested area in the small 'Sarrahiri' village of Pench in the Karmajhiri area. This is the first lodge to be set up in this underdeveloped zone and supports are conservation policy of not overcrowding areas and making them unsustainable with over exposure to tourism.

"Great trip. Beautiful hotel. Wonderful service. We had a wonderful 3 night stay at Barahi Lodge in october. The lodges are beautiful, very comfortable and the service from all the staff was outstanding. The hotel sits on the river bank opposite the wildlife reserve. You are looked after by a naturalist who organises your trips - safari, boat, walks into the jungle and ensures that you have a good time. We were lucky to see Rhino, crocodile, monkeys, deer and, in the distance, tigers ( unusual and very lucky). The road to Chitwan from Pokhara is difficult but it was well worth the journey. We flew back from Bharatpur (about 1 hour from the lodge) to Kathmandu and can recommend that"
