Destination - Bison sanctuary

One more weekend ride accomplished with high enthusiasm and spirit. ;-) This time the destination was “Bison”, a wildlife sanctuary, 101 km from Nagpur. The area is also known as Rukhad in Seoni district, Madhya Pradesh. Rukhad is a wildlife sanctuary adjacent to the Pench National Park. The forests around Rukhad have now been converted into a Bison sanctuary.

I was visiting this place second time. Thus old memories were refreshing when I came to different milestones in the journey. Road condition from Nagpur city to Mansar (near Ramtek) was very poor. But after Mansar, the road was good and ideal for ride. The area of Pench national park was really cool and pleasant.

After Mansar, we took small break in Deolapar. A well-known village for Gau Vidhyan Anusandhan Kendra (Cow Science Research Centre) runs by VHP (Vishva Hindu Parishad). This Kendra has been manufacturing products from cow dung and urine, has bagged patent from USA and China for its cow urine distillate.

We moved ahead and reached Kurai, a small village before Rukhad. After Kurai, the road was quite twisty. We reached to our destination i.e. Bison Highway Treat resort. This resort runs by Madhya Pradesh State Tourism Development Corporation to serve as a mid-way refreshment halt for tourists. The resort was well maintained with nice ambience.

We had heavy lunch at this resort as food was delicious and we were very hungry. :-)

Near to this resort you can find some government guest houses which are also available for stay provided you have booked it in advance. :p You can go to Safari in Bison sanctuary. Since we didn’t have that much time for the Safari, we came back to Nagpur with same way.
