Gir National Park Tours

Gir National Park, established in 1965, lies in western Gujarat. As National Parks go, Gir practically sells itself: it serves as a reserve forest for preserving the Asiatic lion. The vast terrain—forests, grasslands, rivers and swamps—supports the full Animal Planet menagerie including the antelope, leopard, deer, hyena, jackal and crocodile. The watering holes dotting the region attract myriad bird species—and these areas are jewels in Gujrats richly studded safari crown.

Today, the ecology of Gir, is an outcome of the efforts made by the Government forest department, wildlife activists, and NGOs. The forest is mostly arid, deciduous teak littered with thorny shrubs. Though systematic conversation efforts were initiated later, the forest area of Gir and its lions were declared as  in the 1900s, by the erstwhile Nawab of Junagadh.
