It's happened like I was there on Tuesday I could not found many animals except deers. I don't why I couldn't find a bird shoot with my camera. But I have to tell you, it's like a forest adjacent to city like Visakhapatnam. Wonderful greenery and beautiful scenery prevailing there. If you are fit you can go for trekking by paying little amount. I feel it's a fantastic place to shoot movies but I came to know they are banned not only disturbance to the nature but to keep the environment clean. I had few photos so that you will have an idea what kind of forest like environment prevailing there.

It's a nice get away from city hussle. Nice place in the center of city. It's a wildlife sanctuary, we often visit for birding. Lot of migratory birds visit this place. It also has few tracks through which one can enjoy the pure nature and take some rest. Often trekking is conducted by different groups on Sundays. It's a nice place for trekkers. It does have some recreational facilities and adventurous things for kids. People often throng this place during winter. There are two water bodies where lot of birding activity takes place. It is very well connected to the city. If one needs to connect with nature this that place. One can find lot of biodiversity here.

Most beautiful sanctuary with new addition of Orchidarium. It is extraordinarily beautiful. Depicts tropical evergreen forests with hundreds of orchid species

Nothing much to explore, Due to covid everything is mostly closed and nothing much to visit, WIth family and kids we can have good time and kids games

The view of kambalakonda is so mesmerizing. A kind of forest area.. With less signals. Foggy view with small way is such a beautiful one.

One of the best places in Visakhapatnam to immerse in the nature and enjoy beauty of forests of Eastern Ghats. Eco park with treks are excellent . The upcoming area of Biodiversity centre near the Cricket stadium is the highlight of the place. A must visit place.

A peaceful place, for nature lovers. Good place for spending time for couples.

This is a beautiful and peaceful wildlife sanctuary but also a lovers spot. Don't go to bushy areas you may see embarrassing scenes.

Very nice .. so many animals u can see... chill place for family, kids

Best privacy place for lovers ☮️

Amazing place to hang out in nature. Boating, Kayaking, Adventure sports, and nature trails available for the tourists. Entry fees is very nominal and the place offers a huge landscape of forest immersed with wildlife right in the middle of the city. This place acts as the lungs of the city of Vizag.

This is a beautiful place where we can find many animals like deers tortoise etc . during the weekend it might be rush but normal time there will be no rush and during winter season and rainy seasons are the suggested times, remaining days it will be dry especially in summer not recommended to visit here not much animals but very few we can see. This is 30 km from the main city of Vizag you can visit for day outing along with kids and rainy seasons mud will be there winter season you can enjoy the nature there is a boating inside of the forest and Jeep riding also is there you can enjoy the nature by seeing animals.

Very beautiful place. Huge area to organise picnics. I along with some friends went for trekking. Various routes with different distances are available for trekking. For trekking you have to reach the starting point before 0600 hrs

Best places to enjoy in nature

the place is beautiful and alot to offer. good place for walk trials, bird watching. photography, picnic, for kids, water and adventure activities.

Kambala konda is located in NH-5 opposite Zoo park in Visakhapatnam. It is a very good wildlife sanctuary because it is in middle of hills. Nice place for picnics, outings,party's etc.,

Hi such a beautiful and serene place with scenic views and hills. Good place for family picnic.One can explore lots of adventure sports, they charge on hourly bases.Very good place for trekking.There is one canteen inside but food quality is very poor better carry home cooked food and water. We can see mostly college students coming over there management should come up with new plans to attract families.

The place is very beautiful, the natural beauty is worth seeing.

Awesome place to enjoy with family friends obviously it is also a private place for lover's!!! 😅😉👍👍😀

The animals are absolutely the rarest and they are a wide range of them including from bull dog ant to giraffe ( yellow - white strips) .... From ear mosquito to elephant..... You can enjoy yourself 😊

It's is the place we protect our animal lives. This place atmosphere is very nice. That you can feel the fresh breath

Waste of going there. No animal nothing. We saw a dog only. Boating is also average.

Good place to spend time. Infamously known to be a Hotspot for couples. You'll feel very uncomfortable with them around unless you're yourself with someone. 😂 Overall beautiful place.

Awsum place to visit with yout friends and family members.

Super place

Didn't got to see this place since the maps is showing a direction where car doesn't fit

A lot to develop. Both the central & State governments named the area as a wild life century n keep quite.existing Animal life is natural one.peafowels,jungle fowels ,mouse deers,can be interduced by the forest dept. Day or night safaari can be interduced after completing 4 to 6 km road formation between the hills within the sanctuary area.we can enjoy the wild life.Thousands of spoted deers,n sambar deers we can see in the santury.myself wrote an article with photos in a paper in 2008.

Awesome ride But don't go single Group ride is much better Nurture life... 0% pollution...

Great location speciallly for forest lover

Cool n nice place for those who loves nature best time to visit oct to march (especially for couples its good there so may bushes to have fun🤣🤣)... just kidding

Beautiful ambiance. Lovely place for picnic in winters. There are options for adventure, boating on Lake or trekking to see the wild life, a huge area. It's just very pleasant to be in the lap of nature and be one with natire

Hiking is dangerous when done alone, wild animals zone

One of the best zoo near vizag. Must visit. A very silent place having all animals. Visited many times there.

Worst 👎place. I Have seen all reviews in google & went there but it's not good The boating, Zip line, Bamboo bridge is not working they all are closed there are no cottages, Trekking at all I suggest that shouldn't visit it family. Because it's an LOVERS spot. That too They all are college students. Very worst place I visited ever 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤢🤮🤢🤢🤮🤢🤢

It is a wonderful experience , it has a beautiful lake in the middle of hills..we can find lots of species here

Wildlife sanctuaries are always a good place to travel. I personally like it especially in monsoon. Was lucky to see the peacock opening it's feathers 😊 please try to keep the place clean whenever you visit. Follow me on instagram @ritusangle for more travel content 👈🙏😊

There is a check post just when you are starting the uphill. They wouldn't allow saying only the villagers are allowed to pass the check post. The review details are misleading.

Beautiful and serene. Plan for an early morning trek and you will have wonderful memories. Those adventure games are a bit costly, especially the zip line.

Simply nice 👌

This entry point mentioned is incorrect. Vehicles can't get to the entrance from here. You have to walk 10-12 kms from this point
