Nestled between Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, Pench National Park is one of India’s most celebrated wildlife reserves and the real-life inspiration behind Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book. Located about 400 km from Indore, this magnificent park offers an unforgettable experience for nature and wildlife enthusiasts.
Spread over dense teak forests, rolling hills, and open grasslands, Pench is home to majestic Royal Bengal Tigers, leopards, deer, wild dogs, and over 285 species of birds. A thrilling jeep safari through the park lets you witness these animals in their natural habitat while soaking in the untamed beauty of the wilderness.
Beyond the safari, visitors can enjoy eco-lodges, nature walks, and guided night trails that reveal the park’s nocturnal charm. The tranquil Pench River, which flows through the heart of the reserve, adds to its serene and captivating atmosphere.
