    If you’re after a broader range of animals, Velavadar still wins because the park’s 24 hour access lets you catch the blackbucks at dawn and the wolves or hyenas later. The lake trail is mostly deer and a few birds, so the wildlife payoff is smaller. After a day at Velavadar you could stay at Iscon The Fern Resort & Spa in Bhavnagar for a quiet night nearby.
