Gumla, Jharkhand, India
Palkot Wildlife Sanctuary is a protected forest area spanning across the Gumla and Simdega districts of Jharkhand. It was established in 1990 and covers an area of approximately 183.18 sq. km. The sanctuary is a haven for diverse flora and fauna, although its potential as a major ecotourism destinat ion is still largely unexplored. The terrain of the sanctuary is rugged, consisting of flat-topped hills, undulating plateaus, and extensive farmlands. The region is drained by major rivers and their tributaries, including the Sankh, South Koel, and North Karo. The forest is predominantly composed of Sal and mixed deciduous trees, which create a rich habitat for wildlife. While the sanctuary is home to a variety of animals, it is particularly known as a potential habitat for sloth bears and leopards. Other fauna includes wild boars, a few species of deer, and a rich avian population with over 150 documented bird species. The sanctuary offers a unique opportunity for bird watching and exploring the wilderness. While a large portion of the area is inaccessible, key tourist spots like Tapkara dam and various natural springs and caves within the Palkot hills are approachable. The sanctuary is not just about wildlife; it is also rich in mythological legends and historical places, adding another layer of intrigue for visitors. The scenic beauty, with its rocky hills, caves, and patches of thick forest, attracts nature enthusiasts and photographers seeking to immerse themselves in the tranquility of the wilderness.
