Best Time of Visit : -

If you are interested in migratory bird watching in green surrounding of forest, perennials then from March to April months will be more suitable for us. Temperature will remain below 30 degree Celsius. During this time we can enjoy greenery of forest, plenty of water sources and birds around them. Similarly, Rhinos can also be seen easily as grassland becomes so dense. We can find even distribution of rhinos, and tigers and other animals during this time. Accommodation problem may arise in the months of November & December, as these are festival season in India due to which domestic tourist visits the forest most at this time as a family vacation tour so advance accommodation booking would be the better option to follow.
