Navegaon national park

Navegaon, a popular forest resort in the
Vidarbha region, the eastern most part of
Maharashtra, was built in the 18th century.
The picturesque lake set amidst lush green hills
at Navegaon, has a watch-tower beside it. One
can get a bird's eye view of the surrounding
forest and marvel at the exciting wildlife from
the watch-tower. The Dr Salim Ali Bird
Sanctuary, Navegaon is home to almost 60 %
of the bird species found in entire
Maharashtra. Every winter, flocks of beautiful
migratory birds visit the lake -- a rare treat for
the eyes.
One can also join the jungle safari and stroll
through the beautiful forest, crossing paths
with leopards, sloth bears, gaurs, sambars,
chitals and langoors. Staying in the unique
tree-top house, riding a power or sail boat on
the lake, are thrilling pastimes. Nearly 50,000
tourists visits this tourist complex annually.
