Extended wildlife itineraries and alternative safari planning
Entry
Mukki-side access can be planned for Phen subject to current forest department rules and permits.

How entry planning works
The current published tourism matrix lists Ghurri Barrier/Mukki as entry options for Phen tourism.
Gate and permit configurations can change. Treat this as planning context and verify the current permit details for your excursion date through the authorised booking system before payment or travel.
Build your Kanha safari around the zone
A zone is only one part of the decision. Match your permit with accommodation, arrival route and the number of safari drives you can realistically fit into the trip.
