Kapilash Bird Observation Point

9 km

About 9 km from Dhenkanal town, this forest and hillside observation point is the right address if bird-watching and wildlife sightings are your priority on a half-day trip. The access road is moderate, so a sturdy vehicle helps, but the effort pays off with woodland views and a good chance of spotting hill and forest species between November and March. Shade and parking are available, so bring your own snacks and water. A small entry fee in the mid range applies — check the fast facts for the current amount.
