Country Club Celebration Van Vilas Resort at Kanha National

Park

Kanha National Park, the largest tiger reserve

in Central India is still as breathtaking as in the

days of Mowgli and Munna, a giant male tiger as

powerful as the legendary Sher Khan from

Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Book still rules over the

Kanha!

Kanha is one of the finest & best administered

National Parks in Asia, an attraction for wildlife

lovers, a true heaven for its animal and park’s flora

and fauna. Kanha National Park is in the Mandla

and Balaghat districts of Madhya Pradesh, India.

In the 1930s, Kanha area was divided into two

sanctuaries, Hallon and Banjar, of 250 and 300

km². This park was created on 1 June 1955. Today

it stretches over an area of 940 km² in the two

districts Mandla and Balaghat together with a

surrounding buffer zone of 1,067 km².

In 1894, the mighty forests of Kanha inspired

Rudyard Kipling to pen his famous novel, the

Jungle Book and thanks to the conservation

efforts, the Kanha National Park still thrives with

the Royal Bengal tigers, leopards, Barasingha,

sloth bears, wild dogs, wild cats, foxes and

jackals.

Perched on the banks of the Banjar River,

Country Club wild Chalet is the ideal gateway to

Kanha NatioKanha National Park, Country Clubnal

Park. Each of the Charming cream washed

cottages, with a spray of bougainvillea growing

over their sloping tiled roofs, command a

magnificent view of the river with a backdrop of

lush forests. The spacious and extremely

comfortable rooms are equipped with all modern

amenities to ensure a perfect retreat in the wilds.

Naturalists help you unravel the mystery called

Kanha during your stay as they guide you through

Jungle safaris, nature walks, elephant rides, bird

watching and wildlife films.

Facilities at the resort consist of 34 air-

conditioned suite and family rooms, multi-cuisine

restaurant, Ayurvedic Spa, swimming pool with a

deck and kids pool, conference hall, variety of

indoor and outdoor games, safari, boating, bird

watching, nature trails, tribal dance and wildlife

documentary shows.

By far the most striking features of this region

are the open grassy meadows, where sighting

blackbuck, swamp deer, sambhar and chital is

common. And, if one can transcend into time, a

barefooted Mowgli would perhaps come padding

along the dusty trail, for this is the land of Kipling’s

Jungle Book.
