Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Es un hotspot de biodiversidad que se extiende por 11,187 hectáreas, donde se encuentran más de 147 especies de aves. Más del 95% de sus árboles y plantas son endémicos, lo que lo convierte en una de las selvas tropicales más singulares del mundo.
Destacados: Aquí encontrarás una cascada maravillosa llamada "Ratnagiri", que durante el monzón suena como un león rugiendo. Alrededor de las 6 de la mañana, cuando la niebla se disipa, todo el bosque se baña en una luz dorada y miles de mariposas alzan el vuelo al mismo tiempo.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear sturdy waterproof shoes for trekking, as mud and leeches are common on the trail.
- Carry a camera with a good zoom lens, especially for taking pictures of birds and butterflies.
- Tell the guide that you are a photography enthusiast so that they take you to hidden wildlife spots.
- Arrive early in the morning; it often rains in the afternoon, making trekking difficult.
