The backwaters of the Kabini River are home to one of the most popular wildlife reserves in Karnataka. The Kabini forest reserve forms a great part of the Nagarahole National Park. Driving to the Kabini backwaters can be a great way to vacation while connecting with nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-10889\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" src=\"http:\/\/asoulwindow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/leopard-2236729_960_720.jpg\" alt=\"leopard-2236729_960_720\" class=\"wp-image-10889\"\/><figcaption>Leopard.

Driving to Kabini from Bangalore is the best option to enjoy privacy and complete freedom to change plans and make impromptu stops. The drive from Bangalore to Kabini takes about 4 hours and is 160 kilometers in distance via the Bangalore-Mysore highway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_best_time_to_visit_the_Kabini_Backwaters_and_wildlife_reserve\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">The best time to visit the Kabini Backwaters and wildlife reserve<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is between November and April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_stay_in_the_Kabini_Backwaters_and_wildlife_reserve\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Where to stay in the Kabini Backwaters and wildlife reserve<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a large number of resorts that heavily dot the backwaters of the Kabini River, offering visitors a peaceful stay near the wildlife reserve. As the Kabini backwaters and surrounding region is known for its wildlife reserves, tourists first visit the Forest Reserve. There are a number of wildlife safaris conducted by private resorts as well as by the forest officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-10888\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"http:\/\/asoulwindow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/elephant-185578_960_720.jpg\" alt=\"elephant-185578_960_720\" class=\"wp-image-10888\"\/><figcaption>Elephant in Nagarhole National Park.

Elephants are the most common animals to look out for. Apart from elephants, there is a wide range of herbivores that dwell in these areas. Many animals such as wild pigs, langurs, sambhar, gaur, and the four-horned antelopes are a common sight. To balance out the herbivores, the Kabini Wildlife reserve has its own share of predators such as tigers, leopards, and wild dogs. Kabini also has about 300 different species of birds. The ospreys, pied hornbill, larks, Malabar trogon, and fish eagles attract bird watchers and ornithologists from all over the place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_activities_the_Kabini_Backwaters_and_wildlife_reserve\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><strong>Other activities <\/strong>the Kabini Backwaters and wildlife reserve<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although jungle safaris are the star attractions of Kabini, there are a number of adventure sports and activities available to keep the enthusiasts interested. Nature walks, jungle treks, bonfire nights, camping, cycling\/biking, and bird watching are some of the best-enjoyed activities provided by the resorts that reel in the adventure freaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-10890\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"http:\/\/asoulwindow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/wild-185577_960_720.jpg\" alt=\"wild-185577_960_720\" class=\"wp-image-10890\"\/><figcaption>Tiger in Nagarhole National Park.
