Explore Python Point in Pilibhit Tiger Reserve

One of the most interesting yet unknown places of visit for nature lovers and wildlife, Python Point is hidden very deep into the heart of the Pilibhit Tiger Reserve. It takes the name because there are relatively high probabilities of finding the Indian Rock Python, which is a non-venomous, endemic snake, and is well adapted to the dense undergrowth, wetlands, and tall grasses of the Terai region.

Python Point gives a contrasting view of the biodiversity compared to other areas of the reserve in terms of tiger sightings. It lies close to the Chuka Eco-Tourism Zone with the forests full of thick Sal forests, water streams, and marshy areas, 3- very favorable conditions for reptiles, amphibians, and birds. It is a heaven for the herpetologists and eco-tourists who want to get offbeat and less visited.

Python Point is special because of the sensation of the wilderness. Occasionally, the silence will be interrupted by the rustling of the leaves, the calling of the birds, or the tiny slithering of a snake through the grass. It is an ideal place where one can have guided jungle walks and slow safaris where the rock-eagled naturalists might even get a glimpse of monitor lizards, kingfishers, peafowls, or even wild boars on the way, taking the walk.

This point is also rich in flora, although it is named after the pythons. This will be full of big Teak and Sal trees, creepers, ferns, and other sorts of medicinal plants. The natural ecosystem also holds a healthy population of prey and predators, hence sustaining the delicate life balance in the park.
