When to visit

The park is open from – October through June. While temperatures rise during May and June, it is an excellent time for animal sightings due to fewer water sources and a decline in visitors. The park is closed during monsoon season from July to Mid October. However, The Baagh Resort at Kanha is open all year and makes a lovely and restful retreat.

During open season, park hours are as follows:

• 15 November to 15 February - Sunrise to 12:00 noon and 3:00 pm to Sunset
• 16 February to 30 April - Sunrise to 12:00 noon and 4:00 pm to Sunset
• 1 May to 30 June - Sunrise to 11:00 am and 4:00 pm to Sunset

We suggest a stay of four to five days for an optimal number of safari trips to the park and an opportunity to enjoy the restful ambiance and amenities of the resort.
