Safari Zones in Jhalana National Park

Jhalana Leopard Safari is managed through designated safari routes rather than the large multi-zone system found in some bigger national parks. The safari area is generally explored through different forest tracks and tourism routes within the Jhalana forest. These routes pass through dry deciduous vegetation, rocky terrain, open areas and hill slopes where leopards and other wildlife can be found.

The safari routes may vary according to forest department regulations, weather conditions, wildlife movement and operational arrangements. The route allocated to visitors may therefore be different on each safari.One of the advantages of Jhalana is its relatively compact safari landscape. This allows visitors to explore different parts of the forest within a limited safari period. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed because animals move freely in their natural habitat. However, Jhalana is particularly known for leopard sightings and offers an exciting opportunity to observe these elusive cats.

Visitors should follow the route and instructions given by the authorised safari guide and driver during the entire safari.

A Jeep Safari is the main way to explore Jhalana Leopard Safari. Visitors travel through the forest in an open safari vehicle accompanied by an authorised driver and guide. The safari takes you across rocky hills, dry forest tracks, grasslands and natural water areas while you search for leopards and other wildlife.

Apart from leopards, you may spot nilgai, wild boar, jackals, striped hyenas, jungle cats and several species of birds. The open vehicle provides good opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography. A Jhalana Jeep Safari is suitable for families, couples, photographers and anyone looking for a short but exciting wildlife experience close to Jaipur.

The Jhalana Leopard Safari Zone is one of Jaipur's most popular wildlife attractions. Situated on the southeastern side of Jaipur, Jhalana is a dry deciduous forest landscape surrounded by the Aravalli hills.

During a Jhalana safari, visitors may encounter leopards along with striped hyenas, golden jackals, desert foxes, chital, nilgai, jungle cats, civets and numerous bird species.

Amagarh Leopard Safari Zone

The Amagarh Leopard Safari Zone provides another opportunity to explore Jaipur's leopard habitat. Amagarh is associated with the Galta Hills and the eastern Aravalli landscape, giving the safari a more rugged and elevated character than the relatively compact Jhalana landscape.
