1 Night 2 Days Pench Jeep Safari Itinerary
This Pench tour with 1 jeep safari is designed for those who want to get the best out of a short trip, that too in a budget. Here's how the itinerary looks:
Day 1: Arrival and Evening Safari
Your journey begins as you arrive at Pench around noon. After checking in and completing the check-in procedures, you’ll prepare for the highlight of the day - the evening jeep safari. This safari is conducted in registered 4x4 jeeps accompanied by a trained forest guide. As the sun starts to descend, the jungle comes alive with sounds and movements. The evening hours are also great for birdwatching as many species return to their nests. The sunset views inside the park are magical, casting a golden glow over the forest. It’s a perfect way to wrap up your first day in Pench.
Day 2: Nature Walk and Departure
On the second morning, instead of another safari, you can enjoy a guided nature walk around the buffer zone (if allowed), or simply relax and absorb the sounds of nature. This is a good time to take photos, journal your experience, or speak with locals and naturalists to learn more about the park’s ecosystem. Alternatively, you can visit the Pachdhar Potter’s Village or the Kohka Lake for exploration. After breakfast, you will check out and begin your return journey around late morning. Though short, this Pench safari package leaves a lasting impression of the wild.
The jeep safari is the main attraction of this package. The ride lasts about 3-4 hours and covers one of the core zones of the national park. Each jeep accommodates up to 6 people along with a driver and guide. The routes are pre-decided by the forest department, ensuring both safety and conservation. While sightings depend on luck and timing, Pench is known for regular appearances of deer, sambars, gaur, jackals, and sometimes even tigers. Your guide will also point out interesting plant species, animal tracks, and bird calls.
Though Pench is open from October to June, the best time to visit for safari lovers is between February and April. During these months, animals gather near water sources, improving your chances of spotting them. The weather is also pleasant, making it ideal for a short weekend tour.
