ABOUT JAWAI

Where leopards, landscapes, and local life exist in rare harmony

The Land of Leopards & Granite Hills

Jawai is a unique wilderness region in Rajasthan, known for its dramatic granite hills and one of the highest leopard densities in India.

Unlike traditional forests, Jawai’s leopards roam freely among rocky outcrops, ancient temples, and rural settlements, creating a rare balance between wildlife and human life.

Jawai’s rocky terrain provides a natural shelter for leopards, making sightings more frequent and safaris truly unique.

Jawai Dam & The Living Wetlands

Jawai Dam is the lifeline of the region, creating a thriving wetland ecosystem amidst rugged granite hills. Its calm waters attract migratory birds during winter and support a healthy population of marsh crocodiles.

This unique blend of water, wildlife, and rocky terrain makes Jawai a rare and peaceful safari destination.

THE SPIRIT OF COEXISTENCE

In Jawai, this harmony is known as “Suhastitva” — peaceful coexistence.

For generations, the local Rabari community has lived alongside leopards, respecting them as guardians of the land rather than threats. This belief has allowed humans and wildlife to share the same landscape naturally and peacefully.
