The concept

According to legend, the Anandapur Royal Forest was once the hunting ground of wealthy maharajahs. Now it is a tropical paradise for you to explore yourself. You walk across high rope bridges, past waterfalls and a palace frozen in time.

Besides the tigers, you'll see gibbons, Eld's deer, blackbuck, a Komodo dragon, Malayan flying foxes and water buffalo, among others. In the aviary, birds flutter all around you. All at your own pace.

Watch the tigers

The tigers are the best-known residents. Wait a while by the ruins: they often lie right next to the glass.

Step into the aviary

In the aviary, more than 50 species of birds fly freely around you.

After Kali River Rapids

The trail is right next to Kali River Rapids. Handy for drying off for a bit.

Visitor information

There is no height requirement and you can stay in your wheelchair. Service dogs are not allowed in all areas; ask a Cast Member.
