Nestled within the golden landscapes of Jaisalmer, the Desert National Park (DNP) unfolds as a captivating canvas of biodiversity. Spanning over 3000 sq km, this arid wonderland stands as the second-largest national park in India.
Avian Majesty in the Golden Sands
Amidst the seemingly barren expanse, ancient fossils silently narrate tales of a bygone era, while the resilient flora and fauna thrive in this challenging environment. The real stars of the show are the avian wonders, with the critically endangered Great Indian Bustard taking center stage. Guided by experts like Musa Khan, affiliated with the forest department, visitors embark on a treasure hunt for elusive birds amid the golden dunes.
Khichan’s Crane Haven
Beyond DNP, the nearby village of Khichan adds another layer to the wildlife spectacle, with Sevaram Parihar’s extraordinary conservation efforts turning it into a sanctuary for Demoiselle Cranes. Together, these destinations paint a vivid picture of Jaisalmer’s rich biodiversity, offering a unique and enlightening experience for nature enthusiasts.
