Eco Wildlife Lodges in India | Eco Wildlife Resort

Eco Wildlife Resort – Reduction of Plastic Bottled Water

Packaged plastic water bottles are one of the key contributors to landfills. We are delighted to have taken this into consideration pretty early in our journey which has contributed to reducing the consumption of single-use plastic in our wildlife lodges by up to 96%. 

Upon arrival, our guests are gifted with a food-grade stainless steel bottle that can be refilled from water filters in the common areas. The guests get to keep the bottle for further use, thus helping in spreading the message further.

Sharing some details on how we have done till now:

Pugdundee Safaris is recognized as one of India’s leading responsible safari companies. With seven intimate jungle lodges in Central India and many bespoke wilderness experiences, it presents the very best of the Indian subcontinent wildlife & hospitality. 

At the heart of our sustainability vision is not only the commitment to reduce our impact on the shared environment but also to contribute toward a positive change. We strive to encourage avenues for economic well-being for the host communities that we co-exist with and charm our guests with authentic & holistic experiences.

We adopted ESG in 2020, the international sustainability criteria for hotels, provided by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council. In doing so, we realigned our commitments and positioned active governance, as the lever to manage our actions, monitor performance, and sustain the changes; in collaboration with our guests, tourism bodies, and industry networks.

Besides its mainstay of running wildlife lodges, Pugdundee Safaris has been keenly engaged in conservation and community development activities. At Pugdundee we believe local people hold the future of the forests in their hands and can either help protect or destroy them. If we wish to conserve our forests, we must look after the needs of local people by helping to improve their ability to earn livelihoods.

Our lodges set mostly in remote locations away from regular tourism hubs help ensure that the benefit of eco-tourism is distributed far and beyond. We continuously strive to deliver the best possible guest experience, while still integrating the conservation of jungles and the people living around them. We are motivated by the hope of reaching out to people in the remotest areas of our country, as we believe that they are the front-runners in wildlife conservation. However, maybe just a drop in the ocean we consider that we are making a significant contribution to wildlife conservation and the rural economy wherever our lodges are.
