India’s forests are influenced not just by the plants on the ground, but also by the amazing world above.

The forest canopies, created by the overlapping tops of trees, serve as living roofs that help regulate the climate, safeguard wildlife, and provide some of the most picturesque views in the country.

Dandeli – Anshi Tiger Reserve (Karnataka)

A favorite spot for trekkers and nature lovers, Dandeli – Anshi lets you stroll under one of the most stunning forest canopies in southern India.

Nestled in the Western Ghats, the Dandeli – Anshi Tiger Reserve, also known as Kali Tiger Reserve, is famous for its vast forest canopy that spans across lush deciduous and evergreen woods.

When the monsoon and post-monsoon seasons roll in, this canopy bursts into a variety of green hues.

It’s home to a diverse range of wildlife, including hornbills, giant squirrels, and even elusive black panthers.

The canopy is a blend of sal forests, riverine vegetation, and moist evergreen areas.

Higher elevations become denser and darker with dense foliage, while towering sal trees dominate the lower elevations, forming airy canopies that allow sunlight to pass through.

This multi-layered canopy serves as a sanctuary for elephants, leopards, hornbills, and a myriad of butterfly species.

Hiking through Buxa’s woods reveals natural green corridors above, often tangled with vines and creepers.

Situated close to the Bhutan border, Buxa Tiger Reserve showcases a striking forest canopy influenced by its altitude, rainfall, and rich biodiversity.
