Rajaji
National
Park
is
an
Indian
national
park
and
tiger
reserve
at
Shivaliks,
near
the
foothills
of
the
Himalayas.
The
Park
spans
over
an
area
of
820sq.
Km
which
includes
Rajaji,
Motichur
and
Chilla
wildlife
sanctuaries
and
parts
of
Dehradun.
It
is
a
paradise
for
nature
lovers
like
me.
The
park
is
home
to
elephants,
tigers,
leopards,
deers
and
ghorals,
and
a
wide
variety
of
birds
like
peacock,
vulture
etc.
It
was
named
after
the
famous
freedom
fighter
C.Rajgopalachari
popularly
known
as
"Rajaji".
It
has
mainly
four
Safari
Zones
(Chilla,
Jhilmil,
Motichur,
Ranipur)
in
order
to
manage
and
balance
the
number
of
tourists.
The
park
opens
at
3pm
on
summer
and
7am
on
winter
or
monsoon
seasons
and
remain
close
for
some
days
due
to
heavy
rain
or
fog.
We
visited
this
park
on
a
weekday
on
summer
at
near
about
1.30pm
and
so
we
have
to
wait
for
near
about
2hours
to
enter
the
jungle
area
by
sufari.
We
visited
the
chilla
zone.
A
36
km
drive
in
this
safari
zone
is
very
popular.
It
takes
3-4
hours
to
complete
the
safari.
From
entry
to
Mundal
Sot
track
passes
through
dense
forest
as
well
as
open
Chaur.
It
is
example
of
a
mix
jungle.
Asian
Elephant,
Tiger,
Leopard,
Spotted
deer,
Sambhar,
Langoor,
Barking
deer,
Jungle
cat
etc
animal
found
here.
Pied,
Great
Hornbill
also
main
attraction
on
this
range.
We
have
seen
wild
elephants,
peacocks(male
and
female),
vultures,
mostly
spotted
deers,
sambar,
monkeys
and
some
footprints
of
other
animals
as
well,
the
guide
had
shown
us.
Though
we
have
not
seen
any
tiger
or
pied
or
hornbill
but
I'm
not
much
disappointed
as
it
was
my
first
jungle
sufari.
I
can
say
I
enjoyed
my
4
hours(approx)
journey
.❤️❤️
