FACT FILE

Advance permission is necessary for entry into the Silent Valley National Park. The number of visitors is strictly monitored, and ` 40/USD0.5 entry fee is charged. A few private vehicles are allowed for a higher fee, although it is better to use the jeeps of the Forest Department, as the drivers are trained well to spot wildlife and are knowledgeable about the fauna and other aspects of the Park. silentvalley.gov.in
