Known for its rare black tigers, scenic waterfalls, and deep forest trails, Similipal has become one of the most trending offbeat destinations in recent years.

Why Similipal is So Special

Tucked away in the heart of Mayurbhanj, Odisha, Similipal National Park is one of India’s most breathtaking tiger reserves.
Home to the world’s rare melanistic (black) tigers, this forest feels like a living mystery. These unique tigers have closely spaced dark stripes that make them appear almost black — a rare genetic wonder found only here!

Beyond tigers, Similipal shelters elephants, deer, leopards, and over 200 species of birds and butterflies.
The forest also hides two stunning waterfalls — Barehipani and Joranda — that add to its wild charm.If you love nature, peace, and a little adventure, Similipal is your perfect escape — raw, quiet, and absolutely mesmerizing.

How to Reach Similipal from Kolkata

Getting to Similipal is easy and scenic.

• By Road: Around 260–280 km from Kolkata. You can drive via Balasore → Baripada route (around 6–7 hours).
• By Train: Take a train from Howrah to Balasore or Baripada, then hire a car or cab to reach the forest gate.
• Nearest Town: Baripada (around 25 km from the forest entry gate).

Once you enter, you’ll immediately feel the change — from city noise to chirping birds and the sound of forest streams.

Stay Inside the Jungle – Similipal Eco Stay

Safari Experience in Similipal

One of the main highlights of the trip is the Similipal Jungle Safari.

You can explore it either by:

• Government Safari Jeep (Jimny 6-seater) — approx ₹4725 – ₹6000 per vehicle (for 6 people, 4–5 hrs)
• Private Vehicle (with permission) — available at entry gates like Pithabata or Jashipur
  With guide and forest entry fee .

The thrill of driving through dense forest roads, spotting deer or elephants, and hearing only the sounds of nature — it’s something unforgettable.
