Jhalana Leopard Safari Park
Leopard reserve within the city
About Jhalana Leopard Safari Park
Jhalana Leopard Safari Park is a rare treat — a genuine wildlife reserve set within the city limits of Jaipur, famous as one of the finest places in India to see leopards in the wild. The Jhalana forest, a pocket of Aravalli scrub and hills, supports a healthy population of these elusive cats just minutes from the urban bustle.
What to see
The main draw is the jeep safari, which winds through the reserve in search of leopards resting on rocks or moving through the undergrowth. Sightings are frequent, making Jhalana a magnet for wildlife photographers. Beyond leopards, the forest is home to striped hyenas, desert foxes, jackals, nilgai, monitor lizards and a rich variety of birds, so every safari brings something to see.
Visiting tips
Safaris run in the early morning and late afternoon, when animals are most active, and must usually be booked in advance as vehicle numbers are limited. Carry a camera with a good zoom, wear muted clothing and follow the guide's instructions. Its location inside the city makes it an easy half-day adventure.
