PANNA - BANDHAVGARH - 6 NIGHTS / 7 DAYS COMBO

This wildlife tour covers two spectacular parks – Panna & Bandhavgarh, both unique & diverse. This program also covers Khajuraho a world heritage site famous for its spectacular temples. Panna National Park has recently seen a spurt in Tiger population due to the most successful tiger relocation program in Indian wildlife history. Bandhavgarh is the stronghold for tigers from time immemorial and probably the best place in the world to sight one.

ABOUT THE STAY

Ken River Lodge made a humble start in 1986 - one of the pioneers of wildlife tourism in the country. The accommodation is simple and rustic with few mod cons thrown in. The 6 huts and 6 cottages are spread out in a 50-acre mixed jungle in undulating terrain, giving an experience which few in the country can parallel.

Kings Lodge is nestled between Sal forested hills of Bandhavgarh National Park in a large natural forested estate of 14 hectares in a small tribal village. Local knowledge and art have been incorporated in the development and the lodge has been constructed using local manpower.

NATIONAL PARKS COVERED

Panna National Park spread over 543 sq km was carved out of the hunting reserves of the erstwhile Panna, Chattarpur and Bijawar states. It is predominantly an open forest, offering great opportunity to see the tiger and other mammals.

Bandhavgarh was established in 1968 as a National Park, and is spread over an area of 448 sq. kms. The region though smaller than other wildlife parks has one of the highest density of tigers in the world. With the tiger at the apex of the food chain, it contains 37 species of mammals, more than 250 species of birds, about 70 species of butterflies, a number of reptiles
