  • Dang
  • • Wildlife & Nature
  • • Duration 4 hour

Description

Discover the rich forests and natural beauty of Purna Wildlife Sanctuary on a guided nature excursion in the Dang district of Gujarat. Spread across approximately 160.84 square kilometres, this protected forest landscape features rolling hills, small valleys, the Purna River and lush tropical moist deciduous vegetation. Explore the natural surroundings with a knowledgeable local guide, learn about the sanctuary's forest ecosystem and look for wildlife from permitted viewing areas. The forest is home to mammals such as rhesus macaques, bonnet macaques, spotted deer and other wildlife, while bird enthusiasts may spot hornbills, woodpeckers, junglefowl and other forest birds. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, as animals move freely through their natural habitat. Enjoy the peaceful forest atmosphere, observe the region's rich plant life and discover the ecological importance of this part of the Western Ghats landscape. The experience includes transfers from Ahwa town centre, subject to local road and access arrangements. November to March is generally a favourable period for visiting, although the forest landscape changes with the seasons.
