Mukki Zone
मुक्की ज़ोन
The southern safari zone of the reserve, with streams winding through sal forest and reliable tiger sightings. Most accommodation is clustered just outside Mukki Gate.
The Mukki Zone lies on the south side of Kanha and is entered through Mukki Gate on the Baihar side. The forest is dense, with streams, valleys, and meadows. In recent years, sightings of tigresses with cubs have become common. It is also a good area for spotting gaur and sloth bears. Many resorts are located just outside the gate, making it convenient for visitors coming from Nagpur (about 260 km). Safari permits must be booked in advance, and you must go with a licensed guide.
