Khem Villas is established on land that Goverdhan purchased in 1989
and converted into a wilderness area planting indigenous trees and
creating open grasslands and small water bodies, spread over an area
of 10 acres it has become a habitat in itself. It is common to see
jackals, jungle cats, hyenas, desert fox, hares etc. within the camp
grasslands. As it is close to the park one can sometimes see
pug-marks of leopards, tiger and bears that have passed by and
sometimes if one is lucky one may even get to see them near the
camp. The different habitats within the property have created a bird
watchers paradise. Guests view all kinds of birds from the flocks of
White Throats among the grasslands to the Sparrow hawks hovering in
the sky, the Black Winged Kites in the trees and the Moore Hen near
the water hole. The peace and tranquillity offered at camp is unlike
that of any other place in Ranthambhore.
