Far
from the din of the city, lies the calm and peaceful Dandeli Wildlife
Sanctuary, the largest wildlife sanctuary in Karnataka.
Nestling some very rare animal and birds is an unspoilt, untouched and
unexplored treasure of wildlife. Where you can race with the wind, trek
down nature trails.
Hearken to the whisper in the air and see wonder in every tree in the
awesome forest. Sight crocodiles basking in the sun and flocks of
beautiful waterbirds as you float down the river Kali in a coracle.
Witness the miracle of a butterfly, a giant spider 's web or a blade of
grass, each of which is an inscription of hope.
The Wild Population
Sloth Bear, Bush Grail, Deer, Elephant, Sambar, Tiger, Gaur, Panther and
Partridge are some of the many inhabitants of the sanctuary.
Enjoying The Wild

watching, crocodile sighting trips, fishing, coracle boat rides, trekking
in the jungles of Dandeli Wildlife Sanctuary.
