Barricade Trail



Route: This route starts at the main gate and goes up to the barricade. On the return, a small chink in the barbed-wire fencing gives you an opportunity to take a shorter route back, through the jungle. There is a clear path to follow, keeping the barricade route to your right, before you reappear just behind Monu's shop and back at the main gate again!

Attractions: A quick walk (took me 12 minutes at a leisurely pace) of 1.2km. The walk to the barricade in itself gives you wonderful sightings of birds such as the Indian Robin, Magpie Robin, Babblers, Sunbirds etc. This route is extremely simple and is a sure shot way of spotting birds. Spend an hour sitting at the shop, and I guarantee spotting atleast 15 different birds! The return journey gives you a glimpse of the forest and the chance to see some introverted birds and nilgai too!
