Orchha Wildlife Sanctuary

The Orchha Sanctuary is roughly 25 kms long and 15 kms wide. The original forest was covered with Dhawa and Kardhai trees (both Anogeissus spp.). This forest still has Wild Boar, Langur, Blue Bull (Nilgai), Sloth Bear and over 200 species of birds. 
Trails are being developed in the Sanctuary for walking/driving in the interior and by the banks of the Jamni and Betwa rivers. A morning’s walk can yield 200 bird species in this forest/river ecosystem.
