A Mysore to Kabini overnight planned around your stay and the exact Nagarahole safari gate, if you book a slot separately.
Karnataka / DESTINATION GUIDE
Kabini & Nagarhole
A trip to Kabini can be a quiet stay by the reservoir, a safari outing or a little of both. Nagarahole has multiple safari gates, and the gate on your ticket determines where to stay and when to leave. If you choose Kakanakote for Kabini, build the day around that gate. Keep plenty of time for the rest of the trip to unfold at your own pace.
MAKE TIME FOR
What to see and do
- Choose a base that matches your safari gate
- Use authorized Kakanakote, Nanachi or Veeranahosahalli entry as appropriate
- Spend time at permitted reservoir viewpoints or your stay
- Keep the wildlife outing optional
When to go
Cooler months can be comfortable outdoors. Rain, conservation decisions and forest conditions can affect safari operations in any season, so check the reserve directly.
A suggested route
Use the Heggadadevanakote side for suitable Kabini stays and the Kakanakote approach. If your booking lists another gate, plan its specific route before committing to a stay.
Good to know
- Book through an authorized provider and confirm the reporting point and identification requirements.
- Transport to the gate and admission to a safari are separate arrangements.
- Keep voices low, follow staff directions and give animals room.
