Feb 05, 2024

The Kumbhalgarh Wildlife Sanctuary is situated in the Rajsamand district of Rajasthan. The sanctuary is one of the most famous wildlife sanctuaries in Rajasthan.

Sprawling over an area of 578 sq km, the sanctuary surrounds the Kumbhalgarh Fort. Situated at an elevation of 500 to 1300 meters, the sanctuary is home to a large variety of wildlife, some of which are highly endangered species. Some of the animals that inhabit the sanctuary include hares, chinkaras, four-horned antelopes, nilgai, sambhar, jungle cats, hyenas, sloth bears, leopards, and wolves.

The sanctuary also abounds in birdlife and some of the birds that can be easily spotted here include grey jungle fowl, peacocks, doves, white-breasted kingfishers, bulbuls, pigeons, golden oriole, and parakeets.

The natural grandeur of Kumbhalgarh is the most attractive feature of the sanctuary. Its scenic beauty attracts tourists and travelers from all over the country and the world. It is situated at a distance of about 100 km from Udaipur and this makes the sanctuary an extremely popular tourist place.

Visitors can enjoy foot tracking and horse safaris in the sanctuary, arranged by local tour operators. The route for safaris starts from the Kumbhalgarh Fort and continues to Ghanerao. On an abandoned road near Ghanerao, visitors can spot several bird species, four-horned antelopes, chinkaras, and nilgais.
