Access
Narsapur Reserve Forest is located 45 km north of Hyderabad in Medak district,near Narsapur town. There are separate entrances for the forest, lake, and urban park (with parking at each). Best reached by car, though buses go to Narsapur. Walk the forest trails (through the Medalamma Temple), the lake shore, and park paths. Allow a few hours and plan mornings for best sightings. Trails are well‑defined but bring snacks, water, and sturdy shoes. There are no food stalls inside. The circular walking route on the map is about 3 km and passes the outlook tower. But there are many more trails in the area you can explore.
