Jawai Leopard Safari

Activity Details


Jawai leopard safari offers a unique opportunity to witness leopards in their natural habitat within the Jawai Bandh region of Rajasthan, India. Venture into the wild heart of Jawai, a hidden gem in Rajasthan, known for its stunning landscape and thriving population of wild leopards living in harmony with local communities. Nestled between the Aravalli hills and Jawai Dam, this offbeat destination offers a thrilling leopard safari unlike any other in India.

Explore the rugged granite hills, open scrublands, and quiet villages on a guided 4x4 jeep safari, where sightings of leopards in their natural habitat are surprisingly frequent. Unlike dense forests, the rocky terrain of Jawai Hills provides a unique, open landscape that enhances visibility and adds a dramatic flair to every sighting. You might also encounter hyenas, foxes, crocodiles, and a variety of migratory birds along the serene Jawai Dam.

The safari takes place twice a day, in the early morning and late evening, targeting areas where leopards are known to frequent. These safaris are known for high leopard sighting rates and often include off-roading and other wildlife experiences.
