Situated deep in the Vindhya Hills along the broad and rocky Ken River, Panna National Park links the eastern and western populations of resident wildlife in India’s north-central highlands. It is a vast plateau dominated by lush tropical forests, deep ravines, cascading waterfalls and thick teak woodlands. • Panna is located a mere 50 km (30 miles) from Khajuraho, whose immaculately preserved 10th century Hindu temples are a famous World Heritage Site. These intricately carved sandstone temples feature erotic sculptures dating back 1 000 years. Panna is home to a diversity of animals such as the sloth bear, leopard, wolf, hyena and jackal. The reserve is also well known for sightings of nilgai, sambar, chital and wild boar, and the Ken River is home to marsh mugger crocodiles (a freshwater species particular to India). A broad range of resident and migratory bird species can be seen, from storks and cranes, to eagles and vultures.
