Weekend getaway was planned long ago due to long weekend, and accordingly we had booked the place to stay near Nagarhole through Travelife. It was on Thursday evening we were on our way towards Nagarhole, excited though tired with the hectic schedule at work. The thought of being there just pumped us all with enormous energy.Had a pleasant journey all long way and reached the place had food and all of us crashed out around midnight.
Next day early before sunrise we started our way towards Nagarhole National park with high spirits on sighting a Leopard. Nagarhole is the name originated from Naga (snakes) and Hole (streams) is also known as Rajiv Gandhi National Park. Adjoining to it is Bandipur Natioanl Park which is again as rich in wildlife as Nagarhole. The sanctuary is believed to have a higher density of elephants, bison and tiger, compared to Bandipur.
Reaching Nagarhole we cleared check post and a ton of happiness and excitement flooded thinking about the Safari. To be seated in jeep safari in itself was an enthralling experience, we sighted herds of elephants, bison, spotted deer, barking deer, sambhar, wild boars and dozens of species of birds like white breasted kingfisher, brahminy kite, painted stork, black ibis and many other.
Sighting of wild dogs made the trip all the more interesting as they are spotted very rarely. Their specialty is they all move around in groups and often eat their prey when alive. Our entire safari we were anticipated on sighting a tiger, completely engrossed on the thought of sighting it from some corner. As big cats are more elusive then anything else and not to experience it would be very disappointing for all of us.
Apart from this we also noticed people inside the national park never honked, never talk loudly, very importantly never used plastics, no playing music etc, all this to make sure the rich flora fauna and the natural habitat be undisturbed. With this came an end to our 2 hours of safari with blink of an eye. Left Nagarhole with heartfelt enjoyment and one best of the best times we have ever spent, Nagarhole is a must visit for a deep nature lover. As Travelife team says Nagarhole is perfect treat destination from a fast and hectic life i can so bet it is.
