Velavadar National Park left me spellbound during my recent visit with friends. Nestled amidst India's captivating landscapes, this park is a testament to nature's ability to flourish in diverse climatic and geographical conditions. I was truly captivated by the park's untouched beauty, which showcased the perfect blend of thriving ecosystems and impeccable management by the government and park officers. We made an early morning excursion to Velavadar, arriving at 6 o'clock when the open grasslands were drenched in the golden glow of the rising sun. The atmosphere was serene, and the park came alive with a symphony of sights and sounds. Blackbucks gracefully roamed the grasslands in abundance, their elegance adding a touch of grace to the landscape. We were also fortunate to spot the majestic nilgai and a plethora of vibrant bird species, making it a birdwatcher's paradise. However, our most thrilling encounter was an unexpected sighting of a wild wolf. It was an incredibly rare and awe-inspiring moment, reminding us of the park's remarkable conservation efforts and the wonders of the natural world. We felt privileged to witness such a magnificent creature in its natural habitat. One aspect that surprised me was the lack of awareness about Velavadar National Park among many people. It's a hidden gem that deserves more recognition. Easily accessible and boasting a bounty of natural wonders, it offers an immersive experience that many are missing out on. In conclusion, Velavadar National Park is an oasis of wildlife wonder that stole my heart. Its untouched landscapes, thriving wildlife, and efficient management make it a must-visit destination for nature enthusiasts. I urge everyone to uncover the secrets of this enchanting park and embrace the beauty that Velavadar has to offer.

One of the most unique and dedicated sanctuary of Blackbuck in Gujarat. The safe haven for the Blackbucks. It's unique grassland feature gives a distinct feeling compared to other usual sanctuaries. You can spot thousands of Blackbucks jumping around with giant leaps and also various species of birds are sighted. While private vehicles are also allowed with a forest guide, an open gypsy gives a much better experience. Although we found they charge 5k for the gypsy which is slightly expensive compared to the area that is covered. However we noticed the guide/driver is familiar with the terrain and the animals. Predators like the pack of wolves and Hyena also share the territory but are often sighted in the early morning. Best time to visit is early in the morning preferably just before the sunrise.

Blackbuck National Park is located at Velavadar in the Bhavnagar District of Gujarat state. It is approx. 50 KM from Bhavnagar City. The blackbucks are the main attraction here, with the males strutting their stuff, purposefully chasing away others. They move around in gendered groups. The males together, and the females and fawns in their own groups. The pale gold grassland is dotted with clusters of blackbucks which a sight worth seeing. Private vehicles are also allowed with a forest guide. It will take around 2 hours to have a complete round of assigned route. Though the park is open most of the year, it remains strictly closed in monsoon from 15 June to 15 October.

This beautiful, 34-sq-km park that is an hour's drive north of Bhavnagar, encompasses large areas of pale, custard-coloured grassland stretching between two seasonal rivers and is famous for its blackbucks - beautiful, fast antelope that sport elegant spiraling horns as long as 65cm in mature males. Some 1800 inhabit the park, alongside blue bulls (India's largest antelope) and birds such as wintering harriers from Siberia (about 2000 of them most years). There are over 120 species of birds that can be found in the park and around. If you're lucky, you may even spot wolves! The best time to visit the sanctuary is early in the morning when chances of seeing the wolves are a lot more. In the day, the blackbucks are easy to spot but the wolves are elusive. The pale gold grassland is dotted with clusters of blackbucks. They move around in gendered groups - the males together, and the females and fawns in their own groups. It is good that hiring a guide is mandatory as anecdotes about the animals and life in the village are always fun to know more about.

Amazing National Park to spot blackbucks. Large open grassland & some part of wetland. Huge area for safari and it is quite enjoyable experience. This place is worth to visit and also not too far from Ahmedabad. We had spent around 2.5 hrs visiting this in open Jeep. --November 2021--
