Bison Lodge Interpretation Centre
बाइसन लॉज
Pachmarhi's oldest building, a timber lodge built by Forsyth, now the interpretation centre for Satpura's biodiversity.
Bison Lodge was the first building Forsyth constructed in Pachmarhi, in 1862, and it is named after the Indian bison that often roamed here. It now serves as the interpretation centre for the Satpura Biosphere Reserve. It displays specimens of local flora and fauna, geological and tribal cultural materials, and the history of Pachmarhi's development, which helps you understand the forest sites you will visit later. It is small, entry is cheap, and it may be closed on Mondays.
Opening hours
About 10:00–17:00
