Jungle Safari in Satpura to begin in April 2024
Suki Dam, Machan, Triveni Falls, Avani Sarankshankuti, Makaddari Falls along with tigers, leopards, deers in the Satpura mountains have become the attraction of the tourists. But now common tourists cannot see it. But now the forest safari with its natural beauty in Satpura will be opened to the general public in the first week of April by the forest department. This safari will be held under ‘Satpuda Nature Safari’.
50 to 60 youths of Satpura have been trained in this regard and they will be asked to take tourists on this safari. This will provide employment opportunities to the youth of this area. Morning and evening moments like sunrise and sunset can be seen at this time. Many birds from abroad migrate to the rivers and waterfalls in this area. Eggs are added. After some time, they go back. Due to this, bird lovers are crowded here.
A proposal of five crores has been prepared to provide facilities like construction of roads, construction of water bodies, construction of scaffolding etc. on the jungle safari route. Out of this, funds of one and a half crores have been made available and construction of facilities has started. Marks of bears, hares, peacocks, wild boars, leopards were found in Pal (Taluka Raver) Satpura Jungle Safari conducted by Divisional Commissioner Radhakrishna Game.
