How To Visit Park

 

The Panna Tiger Reserve can be visited by a registered vehicle on payment of entry fee. A private gypsy registered with park is available at the booking counter on a separate payment of Rs. 2500 with GST for (Core area  Madla Gate & Hinouta Gate ) and (Buffer area Akola Gate, Harsa Gate & Khajurikudar). Entry fee paid online or at the counter, does not include cost of arranging private Gypsy and Guide (Rs. 480 Core area & Rs. 400 Buffer area) for park visit.

It is always better to book entry ticket in advance through (www.mponline.gov.in), as the maximum number of vehicles allowed to enter the park per-day is limited. Be careful the weekends and holidays are crowded.
