Pocharam Reservoir & Wildlife Sanctuary

The information in this post might be outdated

What was once the hunting grounds of the Nizams has been transformed into a sanctuary rich with animals and birds of different breeds! This 4.5 KM trek takes you through the forest where you can spot Bar-Headed Goose, Brahminy Bucks, Open Billed Stork, and more. After the trek, you can unwind at the nearby reservoir built over the Manjeera River. Dip your feet in the gushing water and chat away with your friends. However, we suggest you keep your eyes open as you might spot crocodiles, freshwater turtles along with sloth bear, sambar, nilgai, rare birds, and more. While you’re there, you should also try river rafting or fishing.

Distance from Hyderabad: 114 KM
