Experience the Wild Wonders: Similipal Tour Packages by Odisha Tourism
Nestled in the Mayurbhanj district of Odisha, the Similipal National Park is a jewel of biodiversity and a sanctuary for nature lovers. As one of India’s largest biosphere reserves and a designated Tiger Reserve, it offers a breathtaking escape into a world of dense forests, rolling meadows, and spectacular waterfalls. Odisha Tourism invites you to embark on a journey of a lifetime with our specially curated Similipal tour packages, designed to immerse you in the raw and magnificent beauty of this untamed landscape.
A Glimpse into the Wilderness
Similipal is not just a forest; it’s an ecosystem teeming with life. Named after the abundant ‘Simul’ (red silk cotton) trees, the park is a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts. It is home to the majestic Royal Bengal Tiger, including the rare melanistic black tigers. Beyond the tigers, you can spot a vibrant array of animals, including Asian elephants, gaurs (Indian bison), sambar deer, and a variety of reptiles. The park is also a birdwatcher’s delight, with over 360 species of birds, including the captivating Hill Myna and the magnificent Grey Hornbill.
Highlights of Our Similipal Tour Packages
Our packages are crafted to give you a comprehensive and comfortable experience of Similipal. The journey typically begins with a pickup from a convenient location like Balasore or Bhubaneswar, followed by a scenic drive to the heart of the park. Once there, you will be lodged in a comfortable nature camp or eco-cottage, providing an authentic and serene stay amidst nature.
The core of the Similipal experience lies in its thrilling jungle safaris and nature walks. Our expert guides will lead you through the park’s designated routes in a sturdy vehicle, increasing your chances of spotting a wide range of wildlife. The cool, crisp air of the early morning and late afternoon safaris is perfect for catching animals in their natural habitat.
The Marvel of Similipal’s Waterfalls
No visit to Similipal is complete without witnessing its stunning waterfalls. Our itinerary includes visits to two of the most spectacular falls in India:
- Barehipani Waterfall: Cascading from a height of 399 meters, Barehipani is India’s second-highest waterfall. Its two-tiered fall creates a magnificent spectacle, especially during and after the monsoon season.
- Joranda Waterfall: Falling from a height of 181 meters, Joranda is a sight to behold. The water plunges into a gorge, creating a mesmerizing roar that echoes through the forest.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to book your Similipal tour package is from November to June. During these months, the weather is pleasant, and the park is open for visitors. The cool winter months (November to February) are ideal for comfortable exploration, while the summer months (March to June) offer the best chances for wildlife sightings as animals frequent water bodies.
