With more than 50 feet tall Sal trees, sunlight trying to touch the ground, dragonflies stretching out their wings under the tender warmth of the sun. Sitting firmly on the dew fresh leaves, they bask to recharge themselves for the day. The melodious chirping of koyal/cuckoo welcomes the new morning. The little sun rays which reach the ground weave a magical display of light and shadow on the canvas of dry leaves. This is what Dudhwa National Park, one of the largest and thickest forests in India, all about!
The Dudhwa National Park is spread over 490sq km along with a buffer area of over 100 Sq km. Besides massive grassland and swamps, Dudhwa National Park is home to one of the finest Sal (Shorea robusta) forests in India. Some of these trees are more than 150 years old and over 70 feet tall.

Another option is to stay outside the Dudhwa National park; Palia has a handful of hotels, and luxuries that you wont get in the park- provisions, medical facilities, and telephones included. The hotels in the town, obviously charge more than what you'll pay in Dudhwa. [more about Palia City Hotels...]
