With more
than 50 feet tall Sal trees, sunlight trying to touch the ground,
dragonflies stretching out their wings under the tender warmth of
the sun. Sitting firmly on the dew fresh leaves, they bask to
recharge themselves for the day. The melodious chirping of koyal/cuckoo
welcomes the new morning. The little sun rays which reach the ground
weave a magical display of light and shadow on the canvas of dry
leaves. This is what Dudhwa National Park, one of the largest and
thickest forests in India, all about!
The Dudhwa National Park is spread over 490sq km along with a buffer
area of over 100 Sq km. Besides massive grassland and swamps, Dudhwa
National Park is home to one of the finest Sal (Shorea robusta)
forests in India. Some of these trees are more than 150 years
old and over 70 feet tall.

Jambolana Safari Camp |
|
|
Situated on the periphery of Dudhwa Tiger Reserve, along the
river Suheli, overlooking the vast expanse of the Madrahia
Grassland lies Jambolana; a tented safari camp. Nestled amongst
a cluster of wild jamun trees (Eugenia Jambolana), from which
the campsite derives its name, and spread over 25 acres, it is
an ideal way to appreciate the complete jungle experience and
get up close with what nature has to offer.

Palia City Hotels |
|
 |
Another
option is to stay outside the Dudhwa National park; Palia has a
handful of hotels, and luxuries that you wont get in the park-
provisions, medical facilities, and telephones included. The hotels
in the town, obviously charge more than what you'll pay in Dudhwa.
