Watch the birds bobbing on the lake from your palace suite

Now a National Park, Gajner harbours nilgai, chinkara, blackbuck and wild boar; winter migratory birds include the Imperial sand grouse.

Things to see and do in Gajner

Museum

An in-house museum displays a plane from the First World War presented by the British, which is now parked in one of the durbar halls. Another section of the museum showcases the clothes of Bikaner's royal women, family crockery, cutlery, and other bric-a-brac.

Boat Ride

A small flight of steps lead down to the jetty, from where one can board a small boat. A ride on one of these solar powered boats allows you to see kingfishers, storks and wildlife in their natural habitat. This is a lovely and serene experience.

Jeep safari

The hotel arranges for jeep safaris to the adjoining Gajner wildlife sanctuary. You may see chital deer and sambhar, Nilgais (Blue Bulls), monkeys and an astonishing number of peacocks.
