It has been 4 years since eco trail, a 2km stretch amidst trees and foliage was set up at the famous Arignar Anna Zoological Park or AAZP or Vandalur Zoo in Chennai.
Even now, the eco trail is not yet open for the visitors. It must be taken into account that the eco trail is expected to give an experience that would be similar to a forest walk.
Even before the Coronavirus pandemic came in 2020, this eco trail was set up at this important zoo in Chennai. In the last two years, after the pandemic was brought under control, children`s park plus others like nocturnal bird house, aquarium, butterfly park etc were opened for the public but eco trail was not opened as it is still not ready.
Beyond the elephant enc;losure to the aviary, an entrance arch and a pathway has been built for the trail. Truth is that in this pathway, the visitors would get the feeling of walking in the forest along with the sounds of birds etc.
It is worthy to note that a part of the trail that goes along the tiger enclosure needs some repair work. This was as per the director of the zoo Mr. Manikanda Prabhu.
