All You Need To Know About The Jungle Trail Park
The Jungle Trail Park, spread across a distance of 20 acres, is developed through a public-private partnership (PPP) model between the Noida Authority and Z-Tech. Built at an estimated cost of Rs 22 crore, this expansive area will be home to life-size animal sculptures, constructed out of recycled materials, scrap metal, discarded chains, fuel tanks, nuts, bolts, gear and more. The benches, gazebos and light fixtures are also made from recycled objects.
Do you know, these sculptures will be illuminated at night? That means, park visitors can embark on a delightful photo-clicking spree even when the sun sets.
Due to its strategic location at the Noida-Delhi-Faridabad border along the Yamuna, visitors are likely to arrive from Noida, Delhi, Greater Noida, and Faridabad.
