One of mother nature’s finest works

The beautiful and lush Kaimoor Wildlife Sanctuary is situated within the Kaimoor Range of the Vindhya Mountains. Prepare yourself for an incredible adventure as you enter this paradise, rich with biodiversity, ancient wonders, and breathtaking waterfalls.

It is an unmissable destination for nature enthusiasts, covering 1342 square kilometres of land, which makes it one of the largest sanctuaries in Uttar Pradesh. Within its boundaries are natural treasures, like the waterfalls cascading through serene valleys, the ancient cave paintings, and one of the oldest fossil parks with fossilised plants and animals estimated to be over 1400 million years old.

Witness the extraordinary marvels of nature

Wildlife enthusiasts are in for a great time as they can spot endangered Black Bucks and Indian Pangolins, critically endangered Ganges River Dolphins, and rare Greater Horseshoe Bats, along with tigers, leopards, sloth bears, and wild boars. Bird watchers will enjoy witnessing over 70 resident bird species here. During the winter, migratory birds visit the sanctuary, creating a colourful display with lovely melodies that make for an unforgettable experience.

Ignite your sense of wonder

Take in the cascading vistas of Mukha Falls, famed for their medicinal properties. Travel back through time at Salkhan Fossils Park, India's oldest fossil park where ancient flora and fauna come alive, or explore sanctuary caves where thousands of years old Lekhaniya cave paintings tell tales of nomadic history.
