Mahavir Harina Vanasthali National Park

Deerpark near bhagyalatha is convenient place for picknic but better to increase some animals and birds.

Stayed in tanam cottage. Best nature surrounded cottages with limited food access inside. But we have option to order food from outside or we can get food from outside to have our tummies full. Very good place for family.

Good place for nature lovers.. Nothing much to explore other than spotting deer and monkeys! Safari ride is everything there!

Good place for weekend afternoon spend out.
#deer #peacock #monitor lizards # hare can be spotted in a quick and short safari.

It has a natural butterfly park too.

Or a simple family picnic under cool tree shade.

This is an immense deciduous forest which is also a national park, it contains several number of deers and antelopes, along with distinct varieties of birds and not to mention, numerous monkeys too.
Only a part of the park is open for visitors with a long walking track along the forest. There is also seating arrangements here and there, and a lawn to sit down and relax.
We can take an enriching walk along the path while watching deers and antelopes grazing around inside the forest, spend some time at trees climbing them, and most important of all, we can breath some fresh air.
Ticket price is nominal and we can get the tickets just by walking in.
It is best visited during evenings to enjoy cool breeze. There is ample space for parking without any additional charges. This is a must visit place for those staying nearby or even for those from other side of the city who loves long drive.

There are 50-70 deers in jungle safari 🦌 management is also good and salute to them the way they are taking care of deers 😍

Deers,peacock and black bucks are there here.
There is a rear entrance at the park where you can walk in the mornings and evenings, Food is not that easily available which is a major setback

a lot of animals we can see here a good wildlife park in hyderabad, kid will know and learn about animal.

It is interesting to see many huge snake mounds. The park is good for picnics too. A small cafeteria and toilet facilities as well as places to sit are available.Great escape from the bustle of the city.

Park has a safari ride that will take you around to see Deers, Antelopes and Peacocks. But they’ll start safari ride only if entire bus is filled up. So plan accordingly. Library and Butterfly park are just okay.

Pros : Best park in and around Vanasthalipuram area for kids to play around with ample parking space. Has a spacious park and reserve forest area. There would be bus ride which takes you into the reserve forest where deers, peacocks and wild pigs can be sited. Besides Deer safari there is also a Butter fly park, where you can find different species of Butterflies.
Cons : No restaurant in side the park premises. Only a small store at the entrance which sells soda and chips. Not worth coming, if your are more than 10 kms away from this region. Hither and thither you find young couples getting cosy.

The place was good , worth the money and you can have a lot of adventure options to explore if you are adventure freek

Jungle safari was good but was for around 10-15 mins only, nature lovers will like this place

800 acre national park the middle of the city should I say anything more? There are black bucks, deers and monkey which can be easily spotted in 20min safari. Nice recreational place only if they added more self exploring trails it would have great weekend picnic spot. No eateries near by carry your food.

if you want to live for sometime in between nature where only animals and trees appear better to go if u are nearby person from l.b.nagar or hayath nagar it is very nearer for you. there is a bus inside which will take u in between the different deers it is worth watching them. there is a small muesem also inside it.

Not so great, there is just some deers and peacock. Also we see everything through a Safari

Nice place but very small park.. , No animals except 2-3 species of Deers and few baboons and butteryflies. Entry Ticket is Rs.10 and You have to buy sperate ticket of safari Rs20 to watch deer grazing in open land (You have to board In a small Van inside the park - avail in every 15mins). It was an hunting ground of Nizams (kings of Hyderabad - During that period)

Good place to visit with family and there is Safari facility

A Place where we can enjoy eating food [cooked and brought by self]under trees in open space.

Nice place relaxing fresh air. There is a tour in which you'll be taken in a minibus to watch deer 🦌 heard.
