About kanha national park.

Nestled in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, Kanha National Park is among the most well-known and well-maintained wildlife sanctuaries in India. Stretching across 362 sq. miles of lush green landscapes, scenic vistas and an overall calming atmosphere, the park is home to some of the most unique species found in India.

Lauded by many naturalists as the most well-maintained park in the country, Kanha owes its resurgence to the incredible efforts put in by wildlife conservationists who established it way back in 1955.

Kanha Tiger Reserve  is truly a treasure of wildlife, with ample space for both predator and prey to thrive. There’s no shortage of plant life too. Till date, Kanha has recorded 43 mammal species. 23 reptile species, almost 325 species of avifauna, and over 900 species of rare, flowering, and aquatic plants combined.

Kanha National Park hit worldwide fame when Rudyard Kipling penned “The Jungle Book”. Both in words and illustrations, his tales of jungle lore were explicitly inspired by the flora and fauna of the National Park.

Today, the park is considered as a “Tiger Country”, and continues to cater to tourists with all kinds of attractions beyond just nature safaris. To get a sense of just how thrilling of an experience it is and how important the park is to nature conservation in India, read about it from an explorer’s point of view.

Popular Tigers at Kanha National Park

As of today, the  tiger population in India  has risen above the 3000 marks. Kanha National Park alone houses 83 adult tigers and 42 cubs. Among the many tigers, the chief attraction is the Royal Bengal Tiger – the largest of tiger subspecies. These majestic wild cats can weigh up to 500lbs and measure close to 3 meters.

Out of the original 9 subspecies of tigers, only 5 remain today. As the numbers of the  Royal Bengal Tiger  began to dwindle, conservation efforts saw cases of interbreeding between subspecies.

This practice has led to the rise of some rather unique looking big cats who, apart from the classic striped patterns, have some distinguishable birthmarks. This has only increased Kanha’s popularity rankings and encouraged similar practices across the many neighboring national parks in Madhya Pradesh.

Three tigers you must look out for are Munna, Bheema, and Neelam. They are the most popular of the tigers and are very often seen due to them being rather comfortable with humans. Read more about the lives of the famous tigers of Kanha.

Wildlife at Kanha National Park

While the Royal Bengal Tiger continues to be a major attraction in all of Madhya Pradesh’s wildlife reserves, true explorers know to look beyond just the tigers and also enjoy the other unique fauna that coexists with these apex predators.

The wildlife at Kanha National Park is plentiful, and on a steady rise in numbers. The incredible conservation efforts have led to the revival of endangered species.

This coupled with the lush evergreen Sal forests, everflowing riverbeds, and gently sloping valleys, have made the national park one of the most mesmerizing safari experiences in the Golden Triangle region of India.

Here’s a brief look at some of the most commonly spotted wildlife in Kanha National Park:

Hard Ground Swamp Deer :  Once an endangered species, the hard ground swamp deer is thriving today thanks to conservation efforts, and is the only deer species that can be found exclusively at Kanha.

Indian Wild Dog:   This furry critter can be spotted across most of North-Eastern and Southern Asia. In fact, Kanha is one of 10 national reserves in the world where the wild dog is most commonly found, roaming around in packs.

Reptiles:   There is no shortage of creepy crawlies in Kanha. You’d find the likes of a monitor lizard, garden lizard, chameleon and even flying lizards here. Snakes are common, with the largest being the Indian Rock Python and the most venomous being cobras and vipers.

Insects:   The caretaking role of the forest falls to the butterflies, spiders, caterpillars and termites. Though small in scale, they play a key role in maintaining the life cycle of the forest.

Birds:   If you’re a morning person, Kanha’s avifauna will greet you in the most pleasant of ways. You will hear the distinct calls of the Rufous Tree Pie, Coppersmith Barbet, Cuckoo, and many more.

Endangered bird species like the Floricas and Adjutant Storks can also be found in season, so keep your binoculars handy.

Zones in Kanha National Park

National Parks are typically divided into multiple zones to make safari tours across it more convenient and easier for tourists. You can access Kanha National Park through one of three gates – Khatia, Mukhi or Sarhi.

The four core zones of the park is usually from where your expedition will begin. Jeep Safaris and Canter Safaris will lead you to the inner reaches of the park called – Buffer Zones, which are typically connecting points between the Core Zones.

For a while, the Kanha Zone was the most popular to visit due to its wildlife density. But this has changed over time, as conservation efforts improved the numbers across the park.

Apart from Core and Buffer, another prime zone is the Reserved Zone – This area of the park is closed off to tourists, as it focuses mainly on wildlife conservation.

Best Time to Visit Kanha National Park

Kanha is one of the few  National Parks in India  which allow unique safari experiences throughout the year. This is mainly due to climatic conditions in Madhya Pradesh.

The most advisable time to book a safari tour is between the months of November and March. The temperatures are calm, with showers of rain and the welcoming sight of blossoming flowers in the land. The tropical climate of the region means you will be experiencing quite a cold and moist final months of the year, so pack accordingly.

It is during the winters that Kanha really shines, with most of the wildlife hustling and bustling about. Summers are terribly hot, and while not an advisable time to visit, however, it does offer a better chance for wildlife photographers to capture wild cats in action.

Types of Safaris at Kanha National Park

As with the case of any tourist destination, there is never only one way to experience everything you can experience on a  tiger safari tour at Kanha National Park . Here are some exciting tiger safari tours to book yourself while exploring the region.

Canter Safari: If you are visiting the park as a group of 10 or more people, a canter safari would be your best pick when it comes to exploring the depths of the jungle and getting as close as possible to the wildlife. This is also the most affordable among safari options.

Jeep Safari: For smaller groups, especially couples or small families, the jeep  tiger safari in India  offers a more personal experience. You can even gain access to remote and hard to cross locations along the nature trail.

Elephant Safari: Do it like the Royals once did! Hop aboard this giant friendly animal and explore the landscape with a whole new perspective.

Walking Safari: The most challenging of safari experiences, this is one a true adventurer should opt-in for. Walking safaris in Kanha are restricted to two zones and offer a rather scenic yet adrenaline-pumping journey across steep and rocky terrain.

No matter which safari type you pick, the experiences are open twice a day (early morning and late evenings), with each trail giving you something to remember as you complete it.

Zones in kanha national park.

National Parks are typically divided into multiple zones to make safari tours across it more convenient and easier for tourists. You can access Kanha National Park through one of three gates – Khatia, Mukhi or Sarhi.

The four core zones of the park is usually from where your expedition will begin. Jeep Safaris and Canter Safaris will lead you to the inner reaches of the park called – Buffer Zones, which are typically connecting points between the Core Zones.

For a while, the Kanha Zone was the most popular to visit due to its wildlife density. But this has changed over time, as conservation efforts improved the numbers across the park.

Apart from Core and Buffer, another prime zone is the Reserved Zone – This area of the park is closed off to tourists, as it focuses mainly on wildlife conservation.
