ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has announced plans to build a modern wildlife safari park spread across 350 acres in Islamabad. The facility will be developed at Milpur Forestry Park along Murree Road, near Bhara Kahu, with the design already finalised.
Officials say the project will be executed without disturbing the area’s natural forest cover, and construction will proceed while keeping environmental impact to a minimum.
The park is designed to house 3,605 animals in natural-style habitats, spread across 10 dedicated safari and wildlife sanctuary zones. Among these will be Pakistan’s largest ungulate safari zone, covering 1,000 kanals, along with a separate big cat enclosure for lions, tigers, bears and hyenas. Additional sections will be built for crocodiles, rhinos, elephants and hippos.
Recreational features planned for the site include a one-kilometer forest canopy walk, a two-kilometer chairlift track, a natural lake with a fish pond and bridge walk, and a jungle play area with a zip line for children. A digital museum is also part of the design.
The park’s central area will host a safari village, lodges and recreational centers, while a food street connected directly to Murree Road will offer multiple dining options.
CDA also plans to set up a world-class wildlife care complex, featuring veterinary and quarantine facilities built to international standards, to support animal health and treatment.
