About Sakrebyle Elephant Camp

Located 14 km from Shimoga on the Shimoga–Thirthahalli Road, Sakrebyle Elephant Camp is one of Karnataka’s leading eco-tourism sites, managed by the Karnataka Forest Department. The camp rehabilitates and trains elephants needing care due to age, illness, behavioral issues, or previous neglect.

Visitors can witness early morning elephant bathing sessions in the River Tunga—an unforgettable experience where these gentle giants are scrubbed and cared for by experienced mahouts. Guests can also observe feeding routines and enjoy elephant rides.

Set amidst lush greenery, the camp offers cottages and tented accommodation, allowing guests to stay close to nature and the elephants. It’s an ideal retreat for wildlife enthusiasts, families, and anyone seeking a peaceful nature experience.

What customers are saying:

Testimonals

  • It was a lovely stay. Very beautiful atmosphere and tasty food. There were lots of activities for kids.
  • The elephant camp is what everybody comes to see, but the birding experience is amazing at SEC. Like other JLR properties, this one too is very well maintained and efficiently run by Mr. Vasant and his team. Very courteous and helpful staff. And the cottages were perfect for unwinding in the wilderness. They have a small bird hide which attracts quite a few birds to include Indian Pitta, Yellow-browed bulbul, white-browed bulbul, Orange rock-thrush, White-bellied munia, blue-capped thrush, Brown cheeked fulvetta, Tickell's Blue Flycatcher, Blythes starling, Orange-headed thrush to name a few.
  • Nice place to stay. Wooden cottages are a little smaller than other jungle lodges but are well made and you will enjoy your stay over here. The whole campus has dense vegetation and you will get the feeling like you are in the jungle.
  • The elephants are really fun to interact with and it’s great to see the baby elephants play around in the water. The jungle lodge is very well maintained and relaxing.
  • The staff was very courteous and service-oriented. The nature walk and morning trek was good. The staff took us to the elephant training area and it was amazing to see how these gentle giants can be trained by a fleet of mere men.
  • The itinerary on their website was followed perfectly. A staff member accompanied and guided us on the herbal garden tour and birding. We could spot many species of birds and quite a few giant red squirrels, deer, and peacocks. One can also take a stroll to the surrounding Nakshatra and Rashi Vana.
