My visit to Gir National Park

Last week I’m on holidays with my family and during the my journey I’ve visited Gir National Park. Its was a great experience for me and my family. I decided to share some photos with my fellow Local Guides so here I’m sharing with you some wildlife photos captured with mobile during my visit at Gir National Park.

About Gir National Park

Gir National Park in Gujarat is the only place in the world where you can spot lions roaming free in the wild. The real discovery channel of India is situated approximately 65 Kms South East of Junagarh District. The Government notified the large geographical extent of Sasan Gir as wildlife sanctuary on 18th September, 1965 in order to conserve the Asiatic Lion. It covers total area of 1412 square kilometers of which 258 Km forms the core area of the National Park. (Source from)

Hi @NareshDarji ,

I can see that your safari tour in Gir National Park was great for you and your family. I would be a bit scared if I come that close to a lion, however the ones you are showing us here are very calm and it seems they are not hungry :slight_smile: This is a very beautiful wildlife place and the monkey on your photo is really cute!

Hi @rajuroyal , your photo with the lioness is great, too. When did you visit the park?

Can you both tell us how is the best way to reach that park?

Gir national park is my favorite place to visit . My job of nature is related to forest so I am aware about wild animal life style. I’ve visited here more then 8 times. After heaving food they used to take power nap . But if you don’t disturb them then they are not harmful. After all lion is King of forest. If you get chance please do visit we will give you a company.
