Karimpuzha National Park, National park in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, India

The park spans 227.97 square kilometers across the Nilgiri Hills, featuring an elevation range from 40 meters to 2,554 meters above sea level.

The Madras Forest Act of 1882 initiated the protection of these forests, leading to their designation as Reserved Forests between 1883 and 1887.

The sanctuary incorporates traditional lands of forest-dependent tribes and provides employment opportunities through dedicated ecotourism projects for local communities.

The main entrance to the national park is located at Karulai Panchayat in Nilambur Taluk, connecting visitors to extensive trail networks through diverse forest zones.

The park houses 226 bird species, 213 butterfly varieties, and contains seven distinct forest types from semi-evergreen to montane wet grasslands.
