Only one of its kinds, the dense and fascinating Chandaka
forest is perfect place for eco-tourism activities. As the elephants
generally venture out at night, a long evening within the reserve, on one
of the watch towers built by the Forest Department close to the
water-holes, is a thrilling experience and one gets the feeling that one
is millions of miles away from civilization.
These majestic animals have made the Chandaka Forest their home, and can
be seen quite frequently. They are however completely wild, and on
occasion become dangerous too.
Apart from the fabulous elephants, chital, bear, pea-fowl, sambar and
numerous other animals roam about doing their daily business unhampered.
The Forest officials have also spotted pugmarks of cheetahs within the
forest.
