Nagarhole is a tranquil retreat surrounded by natural beauty in the heart of Karnataka’s wilderness.
Formerly known as Rajiv Gandhi National Park, this pristine wilderness has a history that stretches back centuries. Once the private hunting grounds of the Maharajas of Mysore, Nagarhole was declared a national park in 1988, with the aim of preserving its unique ecosystem and diverse wildlife.
Today, it’s a living monument to the region’s rich natural heritage and the importance of conservation efforts in safeguarding it for future generations.
In Nagarhole you’ll get to see some of India’s incredible biodiversity: dense forests, rolling hills, and meandering rivers providing a habitat for a wide range of species. From elephants and elusive tigers to playful langurs and colourful birdlife, the park is filled with life at every turn. Wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers alike flock to Nagarhole to catch a glimpse of these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat, making it a haven for safari adventures and wildlife photography.
But perhaps most importantly, the park plays a vital role in the conservation of several endangered species, including the Bengal tiger and Indian leopard. Through initiatives such as habitat restoration, anti-poaching patrols, and community outreach programs, authorities and conservationists continue to protect Nagarhole’s precious ecosystem and its wildlife.
