Sunlight dappling through towering sal trees and grasslands filled with limpid pools, Kanha brings to mind the raw wilderness of the African veldt. India’s most famous and handsome jungle can be found deep inside Madhya Pradesh, in the heart of tiger territory.
About Kanha-national-park

Sight Seeing

Kanha National Park
Kanha’s seemingly boundless horizon of trees and stunning grasslands have all manner of wildlife lurking in their midst. Lucky explorers might encounter the highly endangered Southern swamp deer, known locally as the barasingha, or a lurking tiger.
Time : 6:00 am

Tribal villages
Discover some of the oldest indigenous tribes of India on a visit to local Gond and Baiga villages. The aboriginals of Gondwana – the land of the Gonds – have preserved much of their ancient culture and rituals through stunning art and enthralling dances.

Bird-watching
Home to over two hundred and fifty species of rare migratory and resident birds, Kanha is a paradise for bird-watchers. Listen to the songs of sunbirds and orioles and the mimicking cries of racket-tailed drongos, peek at napping owlets and spot rare eagles at watering holes on a bird-watching trek.
Activities To Do

Feel the thrill
You will feel the anticipation build steadily as you embark on a jeep safari through the forest. Come upon tigers lazing in muddy pools, leopards hiding in trees, howling jackals, dancing peacocks, moody bison – the wildlife here is as immense and varied as the landscape.

Be an explorer
Go on safari perched atop and elephant and explore this jungle the way it was years ago. Your quiet ride responds to its fellow animals of the wild as it trudges through the misty thickets in the cool morning air. This is the best way to explore the deep, wild recesses of Kanha’s forests.

Set your own pace
Wander along a marked nature trail in the buffer zone with an experienced naturalist, and study the forest’s delicate ecosystem up close. It is a fantastic way to learn about the more unsung creatures that call Kanha National Park their home.
