Kanha National Park
Kanha National Park Located in the Mandla district of Madhya Pradesh, the Kanha National Park is a Tiger Reserve that extends over 1945 sq.km of undulating country. Elevations range from 450 to 900 metres. A horse-shoe shaped valley bounded by the spurs of the Mekal ridge gives Kanha an interesting topography. The Surpan River meander's through Kanha's central maidens - grassland that cover the extensive plateaus. Steep rocky escarpments along their edges offer breathtaking views of the valleys below.The grasslands at Kanha interspersed with forests of sal, teeming with varieties of deer - the barasingha, chital (spotted deer), chousingha, nilgai, the majestic gaur (Indian bison) and wild pig, is 'tiger country'. It is ideal for viewing both the predator and the prey.
