About Sarovaram Biopark Kozhikode

Sarovaram Biopark is a large eco-tourism destination in Kozhikode dedicated to conserving wetlands, mangrove forests, and local biodiversity. Spread across about 200 acres near Kottooly on Mini Bypass Road, it is recognized as one of India’s significant wetlands and is designed as both a conservation zone and a recreational urban park.

The park is known for its rich natural habitats, including mangroves, bamboo groves, water bodies, and walking trails. Visitors can enjoy boating on Sarovaram Lake and the historic Conolly Canal, observe birds and butterflies, and relax in a calm green setting away from the city bustle.

Highlights include scenic walkways, a children’s play area, an open-air theatre, a musical fountain, and educational signage that explains the importance of wetland conservation. It is especially popular with families, photographers, nature lovers, and birdwatchers looking for a peaceful outdoor experience in Kozhikode.
