Desert national park

Desert National Park is one of India’s largest parks, situated at a distance of about 40 km from Jaisalmer (Rajasthan). Geographically, covering an area of 3162 sq. Km away from the Jaisalmer borders, the boundary of the park reaches the Indo-Pak border. Craggy cliffs, intermediate islands, flat bottoms of salt lakes, and set dunes. In the desert region’s wild flora you can see plants in the desert, cactus, and other thorny bushes. The perfect way to take a 360-degree tour of the Desert landscape here is an adventure-filled safari. Besides jeep driving, you can indulge in camping and bonfire activities here if you are truly adventurous.

While the Desert National Park ecosystem is harsh and fragile, it still shelters a variety of wildlife. If you’re an avid lover of the rare bird species, get your binoculars and DSLRs on as you’ve got to spot The Great Indian Bustard. When you take a particular interest in visiting the National Park of the Desert, you will come across a few relics from the Jurassic period.

Opening Hours: 10 am to 5 pm
Entry fee: Rs. 50 per person
