Saptasajya Forest Trail

13 km

Part of the Saptasajya eco-tourism circuit about 13 km from Dhenkanal, this forest trail winds through hilly, wildlife-sanctuary terrain that's at its best from November through March. Wildlife sightings and bird-watching are real possibilities on a quiet morning walk. The access road is moderate, so a reliable vehicle is useful. Shade and parking are on site, and a mid-range entry fee applies — the fast facts section carries the current rate.
