The backwaters at sunset, with elephants often at the water.
Kabini jungle safari
The Forest Department safari in the Nagarhole forest.
Kabini boat safari
A guided boat safari across the Kabini reservoir, tracing the southern boundary of Nagarhole National Park. From roughly February to May, as the water recedes, elephant herds gather on the exposed shoreline, offering photographers close and unobstructed views. This is a signature Kabini experience, prized for sightings of elephants, crocodiles, and a wealth of birdlife.
Kabini dam
A masonry dam across the Kabini River, a tributary of the Cauvery, whose backwaters form the southern boundary of Nagarhole National Park. The dam's reservoir, shared with Bandipur, has created a rich wetland ecosystem that makes this stretch one of India's most reliable wildlife-viewing destinations. The dam area itself offers scenic views, especially during the monsoon when water spills over the spillway.
