Deep in nature’s embrace

Nestled amidst the lush forests of Odisha lies Ansupa Lake, home to the Ansupa Nature Camp. This ecological haven, situated just 45 kilometres from Cuttack, beckons travellers seeking solace in nature’s embrace.

The lake’s rich biodiversity attracts migratory birds, making it a paradise for nature enthusiasts. The camp was thoughtfully designed to provide sustainable facilities while preserving the pristine surroundings.
