Dudhwa Resorts

Dudhwa National Park is part of the larger Dudhwa Tiger Reserve and represents one of the finest examples of the Terai ecosystem in India. Unlike heavily commercialized wildlife parks, Dudhwa remains relatively unexplored, making it ideal for travelers seeking authentic jungle experiences.

Spread across dense sal forests, vast grasslands, wetlands, and riverine habitats, Dudhwa supports a wide range of flora and fauna and plays a crucial role in wildlife conservation in northern India.

Dudhwa National Park is situated in the Lakhimpur Kheri district of Uttar Pradesh, close to the Nepal border. The park lies in the Terai belt — a fertile lowland region characterized by marshy grasslands, dense forests, and seasonal rivers.

This unique geography creates diverse habitats that support both forest-dwelling and grassland species, making Dudhwa ecologically rich and visually striking throughout the year.

Dudhwa was declared a national park in 1977, largely due to the conservation efforts of renowned environmentalist Billy Arjan Singh, who played a key role in protecting the region’s wildlife.

In 1987, Dudhwa became part of the Dudhwa Tiger Reserve under Project Tiger, strengthening conservation initiatives for tigers and other endangered species. Today, it stands as a critical stronghold for biodiversity conservation in the Terai Arc Landscape.
