Flying from Dallas to Pune? Along with its historical forts and modern cafes, Pune offers a delightful experience for nature lovers through the Rajiv Gandhi Zoological Park, located in Katraj, about 8 km from the city center.

Covering an area of over 130 acres, this park is divided into three major sections—a zoo, a snake park, and a lake. The zoo is home to a variety of animals, including leopards, sloth bears, barking deer, monkeys, and Indian elephants. However, the Snake Park is its main attraction, featuring more than 150 species of snakes and reptiles, including the majestic King Cobra and Indian Python.

The zoo has wide pathways, shaded areas, and a serene environment, making it a great destination for walking, photography, and family outings. It’s not just entertainment—it also serves as a wildlife rescue center, rehabilitating injured and abandoned animals.

Visitors can learn about biodiversity, conservation efforts, and animal behavior through guided tours and interactive exhibits. The presence of a tranquil lake within the campus also enhances the park’s aesthetic and environmental value.

IndianEagle offers budget-friendly DFW to Pune flights, making it easy to plan a stress-free trip. While you’re in Pune, escape the city’s buzz and reconnect with nature at Rajiv Gandhi Zoological Park—an ideal spot for kids, families, and eco-tourists.
