Purushwadi Fireflies Camping

Experience the Magic of Fireflies at Purushwadi

Nestled in the lush Sahyadri mountain ranges, this serene haven offers the perfect escape to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Each year, as dusk falls, the forests around Purushwadi come alive with a natural spectacle — the mesmerizing dance of fireflies. These tiny creatures, produce light through a phenomenon called bioluminescence, lighting up the night in a dazzling display to attract mates.

The sight is surreal — like a silent fireworks show in the heart of the wilderness. At times, fireflies flash in synchrony, creating waves of light, while at other moments, their glow sparkles randomly in the darkness.

Join us for an unforgettable weekend under the stars, immersed in the breathtaking beauty and wonder of the fireflies at Purushwadi.

Cost:

  • Reaching Base Village with own transport – ₹1999/- Per Person

Please Note:
  • Bioluminescence by Fireflies is a natural phenomenon. The trip dates have been planned as per the mating season of fireflies i.e pre-monsoon during which we witness this phenomenon. We may or may not get to witness it. Wandering Souls won’t be held responsible for low or no sightings.
