Gir National Park

Gir National Park, located in Gujarat, is the last refuge of the Asiatic lion. Established in 1965, it's a crucial conservation area protecting this endangered species and its unique dry deciduous forest habitat. Gir offers the unparalleled opportunity to see Asiatic lions in the wild. However, safaris can be expensive and crowded, and sightings aren't guaranteed. The park's remoteness also requires significant travel time.
