Why Dhikala is a Must-Visit: A wildlife adventure in India is considered incomplete without a stay at Dhikala Forest Lodge. If you dream of an immersive jungle retreat, Dhikala offers a perfect blend of comfort and wilderness. Home to diverse mammals, reptiles, and most famously, the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger, Dhikala lies in one of the few Indian national parks that allow overnight stays deep within the jungle, giving visitors a rare chance to truly connect with nature.
Besides Dhikala, visitors can also stay at other forest rest houses like Bijrani, Gairal, Jhirna, and Kanda. In recent years, the government has improved accommodations by adding annexes and dormitories. All these forest rest houses are equipped with solar-powered electric fencing, ensuring tourists’ safety while maintaining harmony with the natural habitat.
