Eco-Tourism Plan for Sahyadri Tiger Reserve Eco-tourism Plan For Sahyadri Tiger Reserve 1.0 INTRODUCTION :- Sahyadri Tiger Reserve was declared on 5th January 2010 and later it’s Core and Buffer Zone was declared on 21 August 2012. Hon. Supreme Court of India directed on 16-10-2012, the all states for their Tiger Reserves to have a eco- tourism policy based on guidelines issued by Ministry of Forests & Environment, Government of India dt.15-10-2012. Based on these guidelines, Government of Maharashtra issued Eco-tourism strategy dated 9th November 2012. On the above mentioned background, Eco-tourism in Sahyadri Tiger Reserve has to be regulated and managed as per following guidelines and Government Resolutions. 1. Guidelines by National Tiger Conservation Authority dated 15th October 2012 and orders of the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, dated 16th October 2012. 2. Maharashtra State Eco-tourism Policy 2008 and Eco-tourism strategy dated 9th November 2012. 3. Maharashtra State Government Resolutions, dated 5th and 24th October 2011, Circulars dated 22nd December 2011 and 10th July 2012. The dealing with the tourists on day to day basis is proposed to be managed by the local village eco-development committees for the effective eco- tourism management. Assessment of the tourism potential and regulation in relation to safety of wildlife, habitat and the tourists has to be regulated by the STR management. It is also worth notable that there is very less scope for sighting of major wild animals in STR, as the area is of very undulating terrain interspersed with Sahyadri peaks, valleys and escarpments. Hence, the visitors and the tourist guides have to focus on the unique and rich biodiversity in addition to the scintillating Sahyadri landscape. The people in these areas have suffered right from 1956 by hydroelectrical and irrigation projects, earthquakes, acquisition for sanctuary and national park and are resettled in present locations. So, now their restrictions bearing tolerance is comparatively low. So, the tourism policy to be implemented needs to be used for their upliftment and better quality of life.. 1 PART A - Present Tourism Management The Sahyadri Tiger Reserve is having many attractions for facilitating the informed wildlife tourism. Tourists are very much fascinated by the scenic beauty of the region apart from the historical forts like Vasota, Mahimangad, Bhairavgad, Jangali Jayagad etc. Tourists are also attracted for trekking these places and for visiting the temples located at Nageshwar, Parvat, Chakdev etc. Tourists are also fascinated by the famous Koyna dam and its hydroelectricity projects and the water sports in the Shivasagar lake at Tapola. Also, the tourists like to visit the Ozarde waterfalls near Navja village and Nehru garden and research station at Koyna Nagar. Private motor launches are available at Tapola, Bamnoli and Koyna for the movement of tourists. The number of tourists visiting the Chandoli NP is comparatively less in view of the area being remotely located from main roads. Wild animal sighting is more frequent in the existing tourism zone of CNP. Though most of the tourists are especially interested in wildlife observation they are unable to do so due to the undulating terrain, low visibility. Nature lovers, wildlife observers and institutional groups also visit the PA for the study of wild flora and fauna. 3.00 Facilities available to the Tourists :- 3.1 Chandoli National Park :- Current Tourism Area – Name of the village Area Ha.

    EIIRJ ISSN–2277-8721 Volume–VII, Issue–I Jan – Feb 2018 PROSPECTIVE OF ECOTOURISM IN KOYNA WILDLIFE SANCTUARY IN SATARA DISTRICT (M.S.) Dr. Salve S.G. Assistant Professor, Smt. K.R.P. Kanya Mahavidyalaya, Islampur. Abstract Ecotourism is entirely a new approach in tourism. In India, the concept of ecotourism is comprised only up to Wildlife areas. National parks and Wildlife Sanctuary are the most developed tourism destinations in this category. In present study Koyna Wildlife Sanctuary in Koyna River Catchment area is selected for ecotourism. There are some tourist places to visit along the National Park. The Dam site, Garden, Ghats, Lake, Sadaa, Waterfall, rich Flora and Fauna are the common but distinguished features of this sanctuary. Keywords: Ecotourism, Wildlife Sanctuary, Flora, Fauna etc. 1.1 Introduction: The nature based tourism is growing vastly which can become the important channel to utilise wisely the biodiversity and wildlife. Ecotourism is a new approach in tourism. It was introduced in Africa with legalization of hunting in Africa in 1950. This need for recreational hunting zones lead to the creation of protected areas, national parks, and game reserves. The term ecotourism is given by Hector Ceballos- Lascurian in 1983. Recently, the growth of ecotourism and tourism industry compared and the result was that 20 to 35 per cent growth recorded by Ecotourism as compared to the growth by tourism recorded merely 4 to 5 per cent annually. India has been launched the Ecotourism concept in the wild areas of National Parks, Wildlife Sanctuary and cultural areas. Ecotourism is accepted by Government of Maharashtra.
