Netravali Wildlife Sanctuary

Netravali Wildlife Sanctuary is the largest sanctuary in Goa and probably the most bio-diverse. It has some of the finest yet relatively unexplored forests in the state. Home to nearly 200 species of birds, the birding here is from the foothills of the Western Ghats to its crest in Goa. The typical forest here is mixed deciduous to semi-evergreen with a good network of streams and tabletop grasslands.
