Sightseeing Highlights

The main attraction is the park and its many features. One can take nature walks or guided trips inside. Jeep safaris set off into the forest from 6 a.m. to 12 noon (carry a cap, coat and muffler in winter) and again 2.30 p.m. to 5.30 p.m. Of course the main excitement is geared around sighting a tiger, but you will see many beautiful glimpses of deer, langurs, peacocks, etc., which are equally enjoyable.

Other Activities:

 

If you have the time, try and catch the sunset at Kohka Reservoir after your evening safari. Walking along the small tributary of the River Pench for a nature walk, is another interesting activity. 

There are several Gond villages in and around Pench ? some resorts arrange for cultural visits to these villages. The weekly haat or market is a colorful affair on Wednesdays. 

Tourists can visit Sewagram, which is a village that is located 88 kilometers away from Nagpur and is headquarter of Gandhi?s social service work and is a very popular tourist attraction, as well as an important village.  

A picnic at Totladoh and a visit to the dam is another popular tourist attraction.

Located in the Seoni district of southern Madhya Pradesh, around 70 kms from Nagpur and lying on the border of Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, is Pench National Park well known for its varied flora and fauna. This is a tropical dry deciduous forest and it is home to the tiger, panther, gaur, sambar, chital, barking deer, blue bull, macaque, langoor, wild boar, bear, wild dogs and civet cat.
