Panna National Park, nestled in the Vindhyan ranges of Madhya Pradesh, is a landscape where wilderness unfolds in dramatic contrast.
The two core zones are Hinouta and Madla. Spread across roughly 1,500 square kilometres, the park is shaped by rocky plateaus, deep gorges, open grasslands, and dry deciduous forests, all carved and sustained by the timeless flow of the Ken River.
Once pushed to the brink with the loss of its tigers, Panna today stands as one of India’s most remarkable conservation success stories. Carefully planned reintroductions have restored a thriving tiger population, reaffirming the park’s resilience and ecological importance. The forests and riverine tracts support a diverse array of wildlife, including leopards, sloth bears, chital, sambar, nilgai, and chinkara.
The Ken River is Panna’s lifeline—its clear waters shelter gharials, mugger crocodiles, and a wealth of aquatic life, while its banks draw animals and birds alike. With over 200 species of birds, including raptors that soar above the cliffs, Panna offers a raw, rugged beauty that feels untamed and elemental.
Wild, resilient, and quietly majestic, Panna is not merely a tiger reserve—it is a living testament to nature’s ability to recover when given the chance.
Namaskar, I am Dr Suneet Raut. Myself and my wife, Dr Sushila visited Kanha National park, last year, by April 2025. Our close friend, Dr Prakash Babu,called me whether we were interested doing this Safari trip. As we both are nature lovers, and having visited Tadoba and other sanctuaries,were delighted by this call. It was last week of April.We flew from Mumbai to Jabalpur,then to Kanha sanctuary. I must say,the total experience of those 4 days was WONDERFUL. The flights, transportation to and fro by road, the accommodation, food, overall comforts and personal attention and care of Curated Canopy Safaris was exceptional. One thing I would like to mention, that, Dr Prakash himself is a wildlife enthusiast, has a deep knowledge of birds and animals, has good knowledge of flora and fauna. His planning is meticulous and punctual. His venture CURATED CANOPY Safaris is dependable service. We both look forward to join his safaries in future also. -- Dr Suneet Raut, Palghar
