- čas přidán 5. 01. 2024
- Hello,
This vlog is about my experience visiting the newly opened safari (from Dec 2023) in MM Hills wildlife sanctuary, in PG Palya range. This safari is run on a pilot basis for now and the Forest department would take a call about continuing the safari in the coming days. The landscape is beautiful and the distance of safari is around 20 odd kilometres and 1:30 hrs.
They even take us to a APC - Anti poaching camp during the safari to show the place where Forest Guards and Watchers stay in the forest to prevent poaching activities.
Safari Timings - Morning - 6:00 - 7:30 am and 7:30 - 9:00 am
Safari Timings - Evening - 3:00 - 4:30 pm and 4:30 - 6:00 pm
Contact for Safari booking - 9008581495
Reporting point - maps.app.goo.gl/oc3bDwUaoG4c9...
Safari Cost per person - 400/-
Parking charges per car - 100/-
Forest dept should have to introduce electric vehicles for jungle safari.. it may probably helps more chances for siting carnivores
Good thinking but actually they might attack n charge at vehicles which don't make much noise
@@nagkrishramesh2852 possibly
I was expecting sighting of big animals. Totally matter of luck. Drive looks good. I’ll plan to here soon. Tq for the video.
Yeah, they say there are elephant and Gaur regular sightings.....just we couldn't spot any...
Yesterday we spotted Tiger there, we had a good safari please visit there and make a vlog I am a follower of both of you Shreyas sir and I am not free love your videos n editing skills🎉👍
That's good to know 🙂 Thanks Karthik. And yes, i need to plan again sometime for pg Palya.
@@karthiksomashekar9492thank you Karthik. I am glad to hear it.❤😊
We are also planning tomorrow... Kailash and Shreyas we can plan together..
Hope MM hills gets upgraded to tiger reserve soon n may political opposition to tiger reserve ends soon. I hope one day we can have a protected forest corridor from waynad- bandipur- br hills- mm hills- sathyamanglam- cauvery WLS- Bannerghata NP to koundiya WLS - sri venkateshwara WLS and onwards to nagarjuna srisalam. That would be a dream come true.
True, all remaining forests have to be protected with the highest level of protection that is appropriate for the area, so that it provides a good natural corridor for animals to migrate.
Thank you sir introducing him
Nice to get to know about veterans,
And that K.Anderson connection.
👍
Unlike Bandipura and Mudumalai forest stretch, the animals there r used to vehicles and traffic, here its virgin territory, so silence is the key.
I see alot of ur videos sir, very informative. Thanks. 😊
Thanks Ayub. And right, this place is devoid of crowd and it's for those who like to enjoy the ambience of forests.
Great person sir..who have met Kenneth Anderson
True...👍 He has had a great privilege.... knowing and trekking with Kenneth...
The more the protection the better the sightings
so amazing
Thanks 🙂
Love your Vlogs ! I am a big admirer and fan of Kenneth Anderson's works too . Wish i could have some memories like he had ,in the wild, especially here in Karnataka, to tell my next of kin ,when i am old 😅.. I try to go wildlifing as often as i can 😊
Thank you 🙂🙏
Nice sir

Pretty impressive filming skills there, the truck was bouncing all over the place but your camera stayed pretty steady. Thanks for the post.
Thank you 🙂
Thank you Shreyas.
Thanks 🙂
I like your videos...especially that masinagudi topic...neat & simple presentation..👍
That's good to know, Thanks 🙂🙏
Hi Shreyas, Spotted Tiger yesterday in a PG palya safari wild range, Male dominate one around 8 to 9 years it was an great experience from past few days Tigers spotting ❤ continuously. Now there are two vehicles.
That's great to know.....did it cross the track and did you have time to observe.....
@@Shreyas.Ranganath it crossed the track n sitting inside the bush at time we went there we had a good sighting of that around 10sec n it went inside as in our Jeep people made some noise. I am telling u it was jus 10meter away from our Jeep, man what a sighting it was very huge one .
I heard from the driver Nagaraju there are around 3 Male tigers and 1 female with 3 cubs in safari range of 30kms.
Wow!! Really lucky to have had such a sighting.....🙂👍
You are lucky
lovely sir . how do you get information about all these safaries ? I only get know about the well established ones .Is there any website
Thanks, this new safari was all in the news, and on insta.
Amazing vlog! Very surprised to hear ur frnd has trekked with our legend keneeth anderson!! Curious to know his experience with keneeth Anderson!!
Thanks 🙂
I started watching your vlogs yesterday and already completed a few of your vlogs, and KA diaries is very interesting. The places you have explored is something i have always wanted to go. I am from Bangalore and I would love to join on one of your adventures.
That's Good to know Dinesh. A few of them wanted to join, need to plan something.
@@Shreyas.Ranganath that would be great, I have my farm in Thally. I see you have explored few areas around Thally. I would be keen to join you if your planning around Thally area.
Yes, my native is maralwadi and thalli is close by, the forests there of BNP are very beautiful.
Please share your email address to connect.
Thank you for bringing this new safari to us. 🙂🙏 Is there a way to reach here using public transport from Bangalore? Which is the nearby town, if we need to find accommodation. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks, public transport might not be available directly from Bangalore, or you might need to go to kollegal by bus and take another bus from there to dhondeling. And I hear there is accommodation available at dhondeling Tibetan colony, which even I am planning to try next time i visit this place.
Hope they implement noise less vehicle's
Amazing as usual,, you rightly mentioned that these animals were quite shy in the the presence of vehicle,, but yes totally worth it venture... How much does it cost per person?
Thanks Vinay. It's costs 400/- , have added details in description.
27/01/2024 ರ safariಯಲ್ಲಿ ಹುಲಿ ಕಾಣಿಸಿಕೊಂಡಿದೆ......ಸರ್
Yes, got to know...that's great news.....
Lovely safari Vlog Sreyas. Really enjoyed it. Have any of the tigers attacked Humans ?
Thank you 🙂🙏 No tiger attacks in this area as far as I know....
The also opened new safari near hunsur. You could visit that place also
Oh is it, I am not aware of the details.
I had heard that safari route covers ancient burial site, maay be near budi padaga,
Oh, but they didn't show that during the Safari.
@@Shreyas.Ranganath
When the safari started it was mentioned in newspaper
Oh ok ..
& also, 1.5hrs is very less, considering the price & terrain.. they should increase it to 2.5hrs ..
Hi Shreyas, Nice vlog. Can you please provide details of how to reach this place and how to book safari?
Thanks Suman. Please refer to description, i have tried to give all details.
Reach Kollegal,
Then take MM hills route,
After 5 km you get Madhuvinahalli village, move about another 800 mts, you get bifurcation, take right direction road(called odeyar palya road)
Travel another 17 kms you reach Lokkanahalli
Will it comes under mahadeshwara wildlife Sanctuary?
Yes, it's MM hills...
We too could only deer and gaur!
Hmm ok....
U didn't mentioned morning safari timings
Starts at 7...maybe till 8:30 am
Sir, any accommodation is available near to this place!
Not that I am aware of, i guess I need to go to kollegal for some decent stays.

Hi sir. What is the google map location of the forest office?
@@Shreyas.Ranganathsir but how to reach the safari then. Anything nearby that i can drive to and then ask with the locals.
Sorry, i mistook the question for another video. This is safari starting point - maps.app.goo.gl/Vyb9Lf4jCeH2aX9R9
I think a electric vehicle would do the trick, very silent and pollution free.
The forest department must seriously think about it.
Yes, that should be implemented in all forest ranges.
Engine sound will make the animals to go away.Should change the vehicle.
True, a silent vehicle might help in Better sightings....
It needs lot of improvement … not a good safari park yet in terms of sightings
As a kannadiga u better do vlogs in kannada
The vehicle is making a horrible sound
No animals😂
Waste of money 💰 less animals found in safari.
