You have the full day today to explore the forests of Mudumalai. 

Mudumalai National Park in Tamil Nadu is a tiger reserve with an area of 900 square km. In the dense moist deciduous forests of this area, the upper canopy reaches heights of 30 m and valuable hardwoods like teak and rosewood are also to be found here. This is one of the finest habitats of the Asian Elephant and is one of the 11 important elephant ranges declared by Project Elephant. The stretch running between Singara and Masinagudi or any of the migratory routes are among the best spots to see elephants, while elephants and other animals quenching their thirst along the banks of the Moyar River also make for a wonderful sight. Whenever possible, do have a chat with your tour leader and guide to learn more about elephants and Mudumalai’s natural history.

Key species: Southern Hill Myna (R), Velvet-fronted Nuthatch (R), Spot-bellied Eagle Owl (R), Brown Fish Owl (R), Malayan Night Heron (R), Golden-fronted Leafbird (R), Speckled Piculet (R), Malabar Parakeets (R), etc.
