Enchanted Forest Trail



Route: This route starts at the main gate and turns left at the second bridge, along the slope and into the jungle through a small chink in the barbed-wire fencing. The circuitous route takes you along the borders of the jungle, parallel to the main highway and back to the bridge. Instead of climbing back up onto the barricade road, you pass under the bridge and into the jungle on the other side, following which you follow clear paths until you reappear just behind Monu's shop and back at the main gate again!

Attractions: A slightly arduous walk of 2.0km that lets you explore the jungles on either side of the barricade road. The main jungle explored (to the left) has been a consistent home to the bay-backed shrike! Birds that have also been spotted here include the red turtle dove, spotted owlet, oriental honey buzzard, yellow-footed green pigeons, white-browed fantail and the regular birds such as the Indian robin, green bee-eaters etc.
