Stop At: Rajaji National Park, Motichur Gate, Near Railway Fatak Chila Range, 249205 India
Pick up from your hotel for full day excursion to visit Rajaji National Park (40kms/ 1hrs approx one way).
Encompassing the Shivalik mountain ranges, Rajaji National Park is abundantly rich in flora and fauna. This area is also enriched with valuable fossils which date back to as old as 10 million years old. The forest area is popular for Sal, Teak and other shrubs. You can spot Asian Elephants, Tiger and King Cobra, Panther, Bear, Chital, Sambar, Wild Boar, Kakar, Python, Monitor Lizard, Wild Cats etc. You can also spot many birds including many species of migratory birds, especially after monsoons.
Watch a family of elephants here as they go about their daily routine and try to pick out their distinct personalities and understand social hierarchies. Rajaji has the largest population of elephants in Uttarakhand (over 500) giving you excellent opportunities to study the pachyderms. Rajaji is also the first staging ground for migratory birds once they cross over the Himalayas into the Indian subcontinent, so you are bound to meet many feathered visitors in the winter months. Rajaji is spread over 820 square kilometres and was formed in 1983 by merging three wildlife sanctuaries – Chilla, Motichur and Rajaji. The Ganges cuts through these forests and is home to a wide variety of fish like trout, mahseer and chilwa.
Explore the wilderness and rich diversity of Himalayan lives here with a Jeep Safari. The 34 km Jeep Safari jungle track is a major attraction here.
After sightseeing drive back to Dehradun/ Rishikesh and drop off to your hotel.
Duration: 7 hours
