Gugamal National Park, National park in Maharashtra, India

The dense forest of Gugamal National Park stretches across 361 square kilometers within the Melghat Tiger Reserve at an elevation of 2200 feet.

The Maharashtra government established Gugamal National Park in 1974 to protect the rich biodiversity of the Western Ghats and create a safe habitat for endangered species.

The surrounding tribal communities maintain their traditional way of life while contributing to conservation efforts through their knowledge of local flora and fauna.

The forest department requires advance permits for entry, and visitors can choose between forest lodges and hotels in nearby towns between October and June.

The park features a systematic crocodile reintroduction program initiated in 1990 at Siddu Kund in Gadga river and Hathikund in the Dolar river.
