Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Absolutely fantastic. Great staff, great food and superb services. We spent a night there. Rooms had a very old world charm. The individual cottages are spaced out. The food was terrific. They also helped arrange the safari the following morning. We had a really really good time here.

I saw plenty of blackbuck. There are exquisitely beautiful antelope. I was also fortunate enough to see Indian Wolves and stripped hyenas. The birding was also superb.

This is one of the best National Parks we've visitied. This national park is for those who loves to observe wildlife. One can see herds of Blackbucks and Nilgai. Thanks to our guide Mr. Sikandar, we could see wolf and hyena as well. Apart from this, we managed to spot many species of birds.
This park allows to take own vehicle on safari.
We paid INR. 1000 each time as Park Charges and Guide Charge and were allowed to take own vehicle for the Safari.
We took two safaries. One in the afternoon and other one early in the morning.
Do note, this park has extremely limited accommodation options so plan your visit accordingly.
Do contact Guide Mr. Sikandar on +91 8849737599. He is the best.

Have visited India 5 times and never heard of this tiny park. By chance we saw it mentioned in an itinerary and decided to give it a look - wow, we were not disappointed!
Alongside the myriad Blackbuck there are 3 key predators and we saw them all - Striped hyena, Wolf and Jungle Cat! Stayed for 3 nights at the incomparable The Blackbuck Lodge which gives you the chances and time to see these species.
Viewing is from road only so photographers pack some glass! I was shooting the wolves on 600mm plus a 1.4x converter! The cats were super relaxed and close by.
We were lucky but this place is worth a visit. Stay long enough because the more drives the luckier you get!

Velavadar was a great nature lover’s experience. It’s a long drive from Bhavnagar and an early arrival is recommended as the wildlife seeks shade later.
There are two sectors, the grassland and the wetland.
We were very lucky and had three sightings of jungle cat, and. Lots of Nilgai
But it was in the wetland that the maximum number of blackbuck that walked upto you for sightings and photography
Not too many migratory birds have arrived this winter, and we saw a lot of storks in skiers in the sky, but only a few cranes and spoonbills and scattered ibis in the wetland
The blackbuck are the star here of course, with the males strutting their stuff, purposefully chasing away others, while the does did the fawn-care. A truly magnificent experience.

Velavadar blackbuck sanctuary is an unexpected treat for nature lovers. Pravin Vegad was our guide and drove us in a gypsy through the sanctuary. He is so knowledgeable that he draws your attention to every bit of flora and fauna in the sanctuary. We could see the blackbuck herd, but he pointed out the hyena lurking in the background. He told us about every bird, big and small, migratory and local. The best surprise was when he took beautiful pictures with our cellphone cameras through his binocular lens. We now have national geographic worthy videos in slow motion of the wonderful wildlife that abounds in the sanctuary. He can be contacted at 6351615107.

This one of the most unique national parks.... Dedicated to the Black buck this grassland has a completely different feel compared to the usual deciduous forests of India with dozens of gypsies chasing the tiger.
Get in early morning and you see large hards of bucks frolicking with giant leaps in the air. Lots of birds also were sighted... Including the Harrier. We were lucky to see two wolves moving in the grassland... The other predator l, the hyena is very shy and seen by lucky ones.
While private vehicles are also allowed with a forest guide, an open gypsy gives a much better experience.
Unlike other parks no prior booking for safari entry is required.... But if you are going in holiday season it's best to book a gypsy in advance as very few vehicles are available.
Must visit for a very different and unique wildlife experience.

Worth visiting place. One can see Black bucks from near. If fortunate one can get sighting of Hyena, Bulls etc. You can take your car inside instead of hiring jeep.

Can we hire a jeep, if we don't have our own vehicle? What are the charges for the same
Skrevet 30. november 2019
I had been to Blackbuck safari park and charges are 4000/- It take around 2-3 hours.its compulsory to take the guide for which you pay 400 separately. It is not allowed to step down from the vehicle.
Sidharth was naturalist who accompanied us on sfari from Black buck Lodge who organised the safari n they are only ones.

Hi. I notice that you posted some pictures. Can you remember if there are still camera fees as in Gir PArk?? thanks Monica
Skrevet 19. oktober 2019
Hi there,
Obviously you are a local, so your knowledge of Velavador is very important.
We know India well for most of the well known NPs, but are thinking of including this one on our next trip.
It is very small by Indian standards, so would it be worth visiting for more that one day, maybe two or three ?
Also the accomodation and food... how good and expensive is it?
Blackbuck are the main attraction, but for us the wolf, hyena, foxes, cats, and other mammals are for us. What is the realistic chances of seeing any of these.
I would appreciate as much information as possible.
Many thanks

I am not a local, but know India very well:-). The place is small, and the chance of seeing a Wolf is next to zero. We did see a Djungle Cat, but also used it for an excursion to Palitana. Since the park is in Gujarat, note that they do not serve alcohol. Food is good and not expensive, nice service and god managerr. Rooms are expensive but look much better than on the webside, the place is really a top camp. Have fun if you choose to go, it is worth it!

I have heard that at night in moonlight you can see sparks when two black bucks are fighting.Is it true?
Skrevet 24. september 2019
Perhaps, since the anglers are pretty hard.

Hi where should we stay and from where to book the safaris?

Hi.. I am planning to visit this place this month. Will it be closed? It's not raining anymore.. Why do they consider september as monsoon season?
Skrevet 9. september 2015
I have been to the park several time including June & July. It is open year round and the metal road is an all season road. You call the park directly at Tel: 0278 288 0342. The grass will be nice and green but then it has not rained for a month so must be turning reddish brown again. One can drive any car on the park road so so need to have a jeep. Also it is a circular road with few off shoots and the park is very small so one will not get lost. Go there either early morning or late evening after 4pm so one will get to see the birds also. Visit the various ponds made to see water fowls. Black bucks roam in large numbers so you will not miss them and some large Blue Bulls. Early morning one can see foxes or wolf if lucky and late evening hyenas. Keep an eye on the bushes in the periphery for these mammals. Carry a pair of good binoculars to see birds. This is the rutting season so you can see them mating. The Black Buck lodge is expensive and accommodation can be arranged at the Kaliyar Bhavan Tourist Lodge at the Park. However advance bookings are a must. For details and reservations, contact: Assistant Forest Conservator, Velavadar, Blackbuck National Park, P.O. Vallabhipur, Bhavnagar. Tel.: 0278-428644. There are also good hotels in Bhavnagar about an hour drive from there. Best call forest department and book at the Kaliar Bhavan as one can see nocturnal mammals there. Carry a good torch and ask the care taker for tips to see wolves and hyenas at night. Enjoy your trip.
