Places to see

Kalighati:
This is an area named after the neighbouring village. It is located a little beyond the checkpoint you will come across inside the park. This area is famous for the maximum tiger and panther sightings in the park. It is also one of the more picturesque areas. It is worth slowing down, or even stopping for a while, to enjoy the abundant wildlife in the area. The chances of sighting a tiger from the jungle track in this area are the best in the park.

Pandupol:
For the religious minded, a visit to this temple is a must. For those that are not so religious minded, it is still an area worth visiting at least once. The sight of the huge gaping orifice cut through an entire hillside by a waterfall is an awe-inspiring sight. It is worth climbing all those steps to the top of the waterfall. The stream running alongside the road for the last bit of the journey there is also very refreshing to the eyes and soothing to the mind. Surprisingly, not many animals are seen at this stream. The Langurs and macaques in the area seem to realize that the temple belongs to the monkey God, Hanuman, and behave like they rule the area. Many bird species can also be spotted here.

Neelkanth Temples:
These ancient ruins are located 32km from the main entrance. These archeological wonders date back to between the 6th and the 13th century. One of these ruins is still a functional temple devoted to the worship of the Lord Shiva. These ruins are a protected area and photography here is prohibited. Some of the trees surrounding these ruins are quite a spectacle worth noting in themselves. What remains of a couple of them are just the parasites that had lived on them, still maintaining the tree's original shape and structure.

Hides for Wildlife Viewing:
A couple of excellent hides have been constructed in strategic places like over waterholes for wildlife viewing. One of them is at Kalighati and the other at Salopka. If patience and staying extremely quiet is one of your virtues, then spending a couple of hours at one of these hides is sometimes very rewarding. Try and be there as early or as late as possible at the time when the birds and animals are at their most active.

Grassland Beyond Kalighati:
While heading into the park, there is a grassland on the right a short drive past the concrete hide built by the roadside. This grassland is interspersed by many tree also and due to it's cool surroundings and abundant supply of grass, large herds of deer, wild boar and other animals can be seen grazing here. It is also an ideal spot to cool off a bit yourself if visiting the park in the summer months.
