The Chambal Safari is an endeavor to acquaint visitors with a land that has retained
its unique landscapes, rugged charm and rare wildlife – The River Chambal and its
awe inspiring ravines.
70kms southeast of Agra (home of the Taj Mahal) and 125 km from Bharatpur, the Chambal
Valley is a world far removed from the chaotic madness of modern Indian cities.
The Chambal
river is said to have originated from the blood of cows sacrificed by an Aryan King in
his quest for supremacy. Threatened by the King’s ambitions, the Brahmins placed
a curse upon his head, and all that was associated with him, including the bloodied
river. We have been unable to find out what happened to the King, but the curse
on the river certainly worked; there are no temple towns along the course of this
river. The Chambal river is one of Northern India’s most enchanting and pure river,
home to a remarkable variety of flora and fauna.
In 1979 a 400 km stretch of the river was designated the National Chambal Sanctuary
and given protected area status. The Sanctuary currently boasts of 247 species of
resident and migratory birds, marsh crocodiles (muggers), gharials (gavials), eight
species of turtles, smooth coated otters and the endangered Gangetic dolphins.
