Birdwatching at Chanod

Take in Chanod's incredible feathered fauna

Most people associate deserts with barren, lifeless landscapes, yet Rajasthan’s desert is a far cry from this. The desert stretches are interspersed with pinkish-white salt pans – a nutritional resource that migrating flocks rely on during their southward winter flight. Chanod village is surrounded by such salt pans – and through the year, it hosts a variety of resident birds and the winter migrants. Set off on birdwatching trails at Chanod for a glimpse of the incredible diversity of desert life.
