Krishna Jungle Resort

Krishna Jungle Resort is a small wildlife lodge close to the main gate of Kanha National Park at Kisili. It has 31 rooms that are simply furnished. The owners are very happy not to concentrate on abject luxury but on providing a good lodge where the emphasis is on the wildlife viewing. To that end they employ some excellent naturalists who really make a tiger safari a great experience.

I think this is a very good choice if you are looking for mid-range accommodation at Kanha National Park. The food is good, there is a swimming pool and there are evening presentations and film shows about the park and wider issues of tiger conservation. It is a good place to be based for an Indian tiger safari but of course Kanha has a great deal more to see than just tigers. The diversity and numbers of wildlife are extensive.

Highlights

  • Tiger viewing by jeep or elephant-back
  • Good guides and vehicles
  • simple accommodation making use of natural and organic materials
  • Great food

Viewpoints

"Krishna Jungle resort is an outstanding place. The staff were genuinely friendly, seemed very happy in their work and the manager was welcoming, friendly to us and pleasant to his staff. The naturalist, Ryan Wright and the driver, Rupeesh Khan, stayed with us throughout the five days in the park. They were extremely friendly, loads of fun and always helpful. It was like having two extra friends with us. We saw lots of tigers, animals and birds and went all over the park. We were out for over eight hours a day starting out very early and were very happy indeed."
