Once at the park, we proceed for our full-day walk, which takes about 5 to 7 hours. We walk through the forest watching birds and various species of monkeys, and butterflies. Apart from birds, the forest is home to massive native trees marked as the “Big Five” and their medicinal values, butterflies, reptiles, ants, and a wide variety of flowers.
