This was a place of contentment. We went in the morning so there were only a few people in there. There weren’t a lot of different birds around but we saw a number of crocodiles. The walking was very pleasant with a cooling breeze blowing.

Its a good place to visit over weekend on the way to Mysore. Lots of variety of birds and u can spot crocodiles in the water. The boat ride is too small, it just takes a 15 mins round whereas they say the ride time is 30 mins while buying the ticket. Life jackets are available when u go for boat ride. The park was clean and has a souvenir shop inside the park that also offers some snacks.

A simpls boat ride that allows you get close to nature and the various birds visiting the sanctury. If travelling towards Mysore/ Coorg, you must make a stop esp during the summer as you will get a gorgeous visual treat.
The range of birds (and crocodiles) is amazing

We have enjoyed the visit very much. I am not a bird’s enthusiast, but you can’t stay indifferent to all those beautiful birds, some of which I have never seen before. The place is well organized and this a very enjoyable boat ride. A paradise for bird lovers!

Lot of variety of birds, but found it a bit dry this time - September 22 than our visit 5 yrs. back. The boat trip around small islands in the river was much truncated & this time, the boatman didn't give any information about the birds. Overall OK this time

We reached here almost at opening time at 8:45 am. We took a private boat tour though it was way more expensive at Rs 2000 than the shared boat. But we felt that it was worth it. The private tour is longer duration than the shared boat tour. Plus you get the individual attention of the boat rower cum guide. Our guide was very responsive to our queries about the various birds. He also proactively pointed out birds or crocs that were well camouflaged and missed our notice.
After the boat ride, we spent some time exploring the garden area. It was very neatly maintained. We did not linger on longer as we had plans to cover Srirangapatna as well.
Tips - reach early at opening time. By 9:15 or 9:30 am we could see people waiting for their turn ie, waiting for existing boats to return after their trips. The crowd is manageable so that is not an issue. But if you have other plans as well for the day then you are better off saving some extra time.

I have visited Ranganathittu more than a dozen times in the last 30 years, but my recent visit on 23rd Feb 2022 left me very impressed. Though the entrance fee to the Sanctuary is steep at Rs 75 per person, I would say the money is being spent wisely. The glass bridge, hanging bridge and the well manicured lawns are a treat to watch. Though you may come across more "human" couples than birds, occupying the benches inside the sanctuary, you will not be surprised to come across many bird species especially during winter. I was very impressed by the clean toilets though I am very apprehensive of using public toilets in India.
Not many may know that it was at the behest of the “Birdman of India” - Dr Salim Ali, that the Maharajah of Mysore established Ranganathittu as a Bird sanctuary in 1940. Today Ranganathittu is a paradise for bird lovers.
To honour India’s greatest Ornithologist ever, Dr. Salim Ali Information Centre was setup here in 2015, educating us about the sanctuary, its history and the birds. Recently the Centre was renovated, which makes it a must-visit place for bird lovers.
The Centre has pictorial representation of various birds, its characteristics and identifications. People gain information about the birds, their nesting pattern, beak structures, the kind of different feet the birds have and the purpose behind such feet, the feather pattern and colour of different birds.
We can also learn about the sounds of birds and get to know about the voice calls of different birds with the press of a button. We can also test our knowledge about birds through an Electronic Quiz Board with multiple choice answers to every question. I felt both these features were extremely innovative and unique and I must thank the friendly lady at the security desk, who was more than happy to showcase all these features to us. Entrance is FREE of charge

A must visit place around Mysore city. The park has lots of migrated birds from the western countries. They have boating facility inside. We have seen Crocodiles 🐊 as well in the lake. It has couple of view points and watch towers. We must allot atleast 3-4 hours to cover the park.

This is the most exciting part of Mysore visit for nature lovers. The sanctuary is home to several bird species. Pelicans, Dartar, Cranes, Kingfisher, Flycatchers, Egret etc are permanently visible here. Several other birds visit during the season from November to February.
The entry fee is Rs. 75 per adult, Rs. 25 for kids and Rs. 60 for car parking. Take a DSLR with you to get good shots. Mobile phone cameras are of no use here.

The place is very clean and well maintained. As the area is swampy there is lot of mosquitoes, so please be prepared with repellants.
The staff who collects the entry tickets was not friendly enough as he was not ready to provide all the boat ride options available. The life jackets provided were getting sanitized after every use. The general/ public boat ride was very short ride and we could see a few pelicans and crocodiles. The boat operator gave us the information about private rides and would be taken for deep inside the rivers and have plenty to watch. The top tower watch is worth seeing.

I wasn’t charged to go into the park. But the boat ride is 400 and it’s 500extra for your camera total rip-off hence I didn’t go on the boat ride.
Is home food allowed in the sanctuary. because we are planning to visit with our children...

The Sanctuary is an ideal place for a picnic for the family, especially with children. Food and water can be carried.
There are designated places for the purpose and care must be taken to use the bins provided for disposals. The sanctuary is very particular that the visitors maintain the environment and there are enough useful directions provided. Small eateries are also available inside.

I am planning to visit Ranganathittu Bird sanctuary in Jan’19. Can someone who had been to this place in Dec’18 please tell me about the birds spotted?

I had traveled in June 2018 and spotted many varieties which I had listed in my review. Heavy rains and flooding in the sanctuary had damaged the set up and the place was closed in September. December /January is the best time for migratory birds. the weather is beautiful and comfortable now .

I'm planning on visiting the place on 15th of April 2018..anybody who visited recently? Is this the time to visit the place?

Its decent place and one time for sure. If you're into photography you should get quite a lot of species/flora/moments to click. I liked it and got some decent shots.
Also it depends hugely on what do you like and expect in the place, if you're a natural lover I would like to visit it and definately take a boat ride for a closer look at animals. Safe for kids too.
Hi,
What camera was it. I am taking a dslr camera with 70-300mm range. will that be a problem
