Rajiv Gandhi National Park, National park in Rameswaram, Kadapa district, India.

The park extends along the north bank of the Penna River, featuring tropical dry deciduous forests with sandy terrains across its expanse.

The establishment of the protected area reflects India's environmental conservation initiatives dedicated to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.

The surrounding villages maintain traditional connections to the land, integrating local agricultural practices with forest resource management.

The optimal period for park visits spans from October through February, with access available through the main roads leading to Rameswaram.

The combination of sandy soil conditions and river proximity creates specialized habitats for burrowing snakes, including Russell's vipers and earth boas.
