Destination Guide

Details
Located in Kodagu and Mysore districts is a fresh, green world rich in forest, little streams, undulating valleys and fascinating waterfalls. The Nagarhole National Park. A perfect get - away for nature - lovers.

Deriving its name from Kannada, 'Naga' meaning snake and 'hole' referring to strems, Nagarhole is truly a delightful spot, bubbling with the activity of some of the most magnificent animals and trees.

Rosewood, teak, sandal, silver oak........ the deep, fresh aroma of these trees mingling with the sounds of the wildlife -ah! A perfect holiday treat. No wonder this was also an exclusive hunting preserve of the erstwhile rules of Mysore.

And if you'd like to tour Nagarhole in royal style, do it in the 'Maharajah' way - on elephant back. And of course , there are jeeps and vans too.

So come over, Nagarhole is no ordinary place. Because enchantment never ends here, like its collection of wildlife. Four horned antelope, panther, warblers hornbills, spotted deer, mouse deer, pangolin, gaur, giant flying squirrel..

And if ever you get lost amongst them, there's no need to panic. the Jenu Kurubas (honey-gatherers), the Betta Kurubas (hill tribes) and the Hakki-Pikki (bird trappers) inhabiting this park are always ready to help you. with a warm smile.
