Its unchartered jungles, massive cliffs, and powerful rivers have birthed many stories of the paranormal type, including that of the stalking ‘mandeburung’, or man of the jungle, straight out of the cryptozoologist’s handbook. If these tales don’t inspire you to tread through its forest paths, Balpakram National Park is also a treasure trove of animal and plant life, including the endangered wild water buffalo.

The mighty Simsang River defines the landscape. On the plateau-top, you will get expansive views of the National Park’s main canyon and the many waterfalls that barrage down from the cliff-side. Despite its comparatively small size, Balpakram is considered the last stand of the rarest plant and animal species not found anywhere else. During winters, you can enjoy sightings of animals like elephants and it is also the time for ground orchids to bloom.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background”
