Telangana’s First Bird-Watching Cabin Opens in Khammam
It is designed as an eco-friendly structure to minimise disturbance to wildlife while enhancing nature-based learning
Nalgonda: The Telangana forest department has established the state’s first bird watching cabin at the Puligundala eco-tourism site in Khammam district, aimed at promoting biodiversity conservation and eco-tourism.
The facility has been set up within a forest area to enable visitors to observe birdlife in a non-intrusive manner. It is designed as an eco-friendly structure to minimise disturbance to wildlife while enhancing nature-based learning.
Officials said the cabin will help regulate visitor movement in sensitive zones, support bird observation and documentation, and strengthen Puligundala’s position as an eco-tourism destination.
District forest officer Siddharth Vikram Singh said the initiative marks a step towards sustainable eco-tourism and conservation outreach, while promoting public engagement with nature.
He said the facility is expected to integrate conservation, education and tourism, and provide a structured experience for visitors while protecting biodiversity.
