Kabini, on the border of Karnataka and Kerala, makes a perfect wild getaway. The best thing about the foothills of the Nilgiri Hills and Western Ghats is the abundance of wildlife that one gets to spot. It needn’t always be about spotting that elusive tiger. The joy for the wildlife lover is to spot many other rare species here, which include leopards, wild dogs and many different reptiles.

Kabini too is one such delight, where one can go to check out some rare sightings of animals at the Nagarhole National Park. Found alongside the riverbanks of the Kabini river are many species of birds and animals, making it a much sought-after destination, especially for the wildlife photographers. The best attractions would have to be the land and water safari. While on land safari, one gets to spot bisons, elephants and peacocks along with some other rare sightings, the river safari is a delight for the ornithologists, with many winged-wonders resting alongside the river.
