| Fastest Route - to Silvassa |
|
Rail: To get to Dadra and Nagar Haveli or Silvassa by train, you need to go to Vapi which is the nearest rail head as most of the trains halt at Vapi. However if you are coming by car than I would suggest Bhilad station take right just before the flyover starting point. It is 12 km away to Silvassa.

It has a large water front of the Damanganga River with a variety of water sports equipment, like jet skis, speed boats and shikaras. The accommodation in cottages is a sought after retreat for city dwellers. The restaurant serves delicious sea food, as is in restaurants of Silvassa
Khanvel: 20 km south of Silvassa, is surrounded by lush green hills. The river Sakartod flows by, and in the forests you can spot flying foxes, fruit bats, flycatchers and barbets. The drive from Silvassa to Khanvel is a pleasant one, passing majestic trees and tribal villages.
Deer Park: Deer Park is located just 2-3 kms away from Lion Safari Park. There is no entry fee here to enter this park and one can go in their vehicles to watch the deer. There are around 150 deer in this park, but one may get to see only a few as deer usually are found deep inside the park where no car can go.
