Moodabidri To Bandipur National Park

Nearest to Nature

Post by Harpreet | Mumbai | Jun 15, 2012

From Mumbai, we reached Banglore by morning flight where we had vehicle arranged for Bandipur. Route is Banglore / Mysore (130 kms) / Bandipur (80kms) - Takes around 5 hours including two halts of 15 to 20 mins each. Road condition upto Mysore is very good (four lanning); further it is double lane road. Better reach Bandipur well before sunset; you loose connectivity after you cross Mysore and there are hardly any population on road. If interested in Forest safaris, please go prepared with cloths as close to colors of nature as possible (brown / light green / mild yellow) and necessarily avoid Red / black. Remember to switch off flash mode of your camera before you set in forest and start shooting; animals get scared and spotting them becomes difficult. Maintain as much silence as possible and just relish NATURE.
