Camp Monk is a platform that lets people list and find campsites. While most of the camps listed on their website are in South India, they’ve also got a few sites up North. Fair warning: you’ll probably end up spending way too much time browsing through this website and fantasising about your next camp vacay.

Outside = Good

We love ourselves some fancy hotels and cosy homestays, but no property can match up to the feeling of sleeping under the star-lit sky, or reset our senses to nature’s sights and sounds as a campsite can. And, if it’s a campsite far, far away from civilisation, offering the best of views and the craziest of activities, a great time is guaranteed. Now, that’s where Camp Monk comes in.

Started by Shashi and Amit, this Bangalore-based start-up helps people explore the outside through its campsites. Each site offers a different set of facilities like charging points, drinking water, barbecues and more, along with a variety of adventure activities {kayaking, cycling, wildlife watching etc.}. When booking through Camp Monk, one can see all of these options along with four accommodation choices – luxury tent, tent, dorm and BYOT {Bring Your Own Tent}. Depending upon your preferences, you can filter and shortlist sites in areas like Coorg, Kodai, Idukki and more.

If we were you, we’d definitely book the secret camp in Tosh {considering the proximity} situated next to the Parvati Valley river and for a longer vacay, we’re eyeing this Misty Tea Hill Campground in Munnar.

So, We're Saying...

Check out their website here. Now, you’ll probably reconsider the usual hotels & BnB kind of summer holiday that you were planning.

Also, you might want to browse through the guides in their journal section. They’re insightful {to say the least} for both the noob and the experienced campers. Now, go on, happy camping!

Tariffs: Starting at INR 250 {for the Tosh BYOT camp}.
