Beed Papad Leopard Safari is a brand-new wildlife reserve in Jaipur that opened on World Environment Day (June 5, 2025). It spans the Maila Bagh and Beed Papad forest areas (part of Nahargarh Sanctuary, 5,240 hectares). The forest department has developed about 19 km of motorable safari tracks here, along with 12 waterholes and restored grasslands to support wildlife. Under the leadership of senior forest officials, 10 certified safari gypsies are now operating in Beed Papad, each carrying up to 6 visitors. The safari’s official entry point is through the Vidyadhar Nagar area (near Bhuteshwar Mahadev Mandir on VKI Road).
Beed Papad Safari is located on the western edge of Jaipur in the Vidyadhar Nagar area, just beyond the city’s urban sprawl. It lies at the foot of the Aravalli hills, within the Nahargarh Sanctuary’s Maila Bagh–Beed Papad forests. Major nearby landmarks: Nahargarh Biological Park (Zoo) is to the south, and Kishan Bagh hills to the north. The safari’s entry gate is near Bhuteshwar Mahadev Mandir on VKI Road (Road No. 1) in Vidyadhar Nagar.

The highlight is undoubtedly the leopard (panther), India’s majestic big cat. Other notable animals include Sambhar deer, Nilgai (blue bull), wild boar, hyenas, jackals, and porcupines. Birdlife is abundant – look for raptors like crested serpent eagles, colorful parakeets, and migratory waterfowl near ponds.
The landscape is a mix of dry deciduous forest and Aravalli scrub. Watch for unique desert plants (like khejri and babool trees) along the trails. Forest departments have planted grasses and created clearings to improve wildlife visibility. In places, you’ll notice sand dunes and desert-like terrain.
Typically, children above 5 are charged at adult rates. Infants/toddlers may share seats, subject to approval. Identification: Carry a valid photo ID; it must match the booking details.
