About Panna National Park
Panna National Park, covering 543 sq. km in Madhya Pradesh, is a landscape were natural beauty and history blend seamlessly. Established in 1981 and declared a tiger reserve in 1994, Panna has been a cornerstone of India’s tiger conservation efforts. After suffering local extinction, the park became a model for tiger reintroduction programs. Today, it proudly sustains a healthy and growing tiger population.
The Ken River flows through the park, carving deep gorges and forming pools that attract both wildlife and visitors. The river is also a lifeline for gharials and mugger crocodiles. Panna’s name is often associated with diamonds, as the region historically held some of India’s richest diamond mines.
Nearby Khajuraho temples, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, add cultural depth to any journey here. For centuries, these forests were also home to Bundela rulers and local tribes, whose stories still echo in folklore.

The park’s plateaus are covered with grasslands that turn golden in summer, providing grazing grounds for deer and antelope. The rocky outcrops and scrub patches, meanwhile, offer perfect cover for leopards and sloth bears.
Monsoons transform the park into a verdant wilderness, replenishing the river and filling small ponds. By winter, the landscape settles into a balance of dry teak forests and green riverbanks, setting the stage for safaris.
Panna’s vegetation mirrors its topography—rugged yet fertile, dry yet interlaced with life-giving watercourses. This dynamic ecosystem supports an impressive variety of species.

Wildlife At Panna National Park
Panna’s wildlife story is one of resilience. After local extinction of tigers in 2009, the park became the site of one of India’s most successful tiger reintroduction programs. Today, tiger sightings are once again a highlight of safaris here. Leopards are relatively common, especially around rocky cliffs and gorges, while dholes roam in packs across the forest.

Herbivores are plentiful—spotted deer, sambar, nilgai, and chinkara graze the meadows and riverbanks. The presence of these prey animals sustains healthy populations of carnivores. Sloth bears, often encountered in hilly terrain, add an element of surprise to evening drives. Smaller carnivores like jackals, jungle cats, and civets also thrive here.
The Ken River gives Panna a unique edge. Marsh crocodiles and gharials are seen basking on its sandbanks, while softshell turtles and fish-eating birds make it a lively aquatic habitat.
This combination of terrestrial and riverine wildlife sets Panna apart, making it not only a tiger reserve but also a sanctuary where land and water species coexist.

Raptors dominate the skies. White-eyed buzzards, changeable hawk-eagles, and crested serpent eagles patrol the forests, while vultures soar above the cliffs. The park is one of the last strongholds for critically endangered vultures, including the long-billed and Egyptian vulture.
The teak forests and bamboo patches host Indian pittas, golden orioles, drongos, and flycatchers. Nightjars and owls add to the nocturnal chorus. The meadows, on the other hand, are alive with larks, quails, and peafowl.
With its riverine, forest, and grassland habitats, Panna offers layered birding opportunities. Even casual visitors notice the diversity, while serious birders can spend days exploring its varied landscapes.
