The base camp is a 5 minute cross country drive in to the desert from the temple town of Osian, which is famous for it's Hindu and Jain temples dating back to the 8th and 11th centuries. Osian was once on the trading route between Delhi and the Middle East making it one of the most flourishing business centers of its time.

For guests arriving from Jodhpur, Khimsar or Nagpur the base camp makes an ideal take off point for all safaris leading towards Jaisalmer. For guests arriving from Jailsalmer the same can be done vice versa, the safaris ending at the base camp.
