Includes

Hotel naturalist or staff & a local farmer

Begin at the buffalo barn, witnessing the milking process firsthand. Proceed to the farmer's house, engaging with hosts, learning their ways, and observing the curd-making ritual. Expertly boiled for 45 minutes, the milk is cooled, poured into clay pots, left overnight to thicken into curd. Your journey culminates in tasting the freshly prepared curd, often accompanied by kittul pani's sweet essence. Immerse yourself in this authentic local experience, a blend of tradition, flavors, and cultural richness.

Good to Know

This entire experience will take around 1 and a half to 2 hours. We recommend an early start around 6:30 am to see the milking, if not the experience will be without the milking.

We recommend the experience for children aged 5 and above. The decisions is at the discretion of the parents.

If you like your curd and yoghurt tasting the fresh curd with the farmers will be a memorable experience.
