Noida has officially opened the Jungle Trail Park in Sector 94, a first-of-its-kind waste-to-wildlife attraction built entirely from scrap material. The park was inaugurated by Noida MLA Pankaj Singh and Gautam Buddh Nagar MP Dr Mahesh Sharma, before being opened to the public on December 1, 2025.

Constructed at a cost of Rs 25 crore, the park transforms what was once a barren piece of land into an 18.27-acre themed space showcasing wildlife, dense greenery, night lighting and family-friendly activities. The project was developed under the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model and was earlier opened on a trial basis to collect public feedback.

Built From Scrap: Over 650 Sculptures Created Using 400 Tonnes of Waste

One of the biggest highlights of the Jungle Trail Park is its extensive use of scrap material. More than 400 tonnes of waste—including old iron rods, motor parts, discarded wires and electric poles—has been repurposed to create over 650 sculptures of animals and birds.

These installations depict species from all seven continents, ranging from tigers, lions and giraffes to penguins, octopuses and sharks. The park is now being called the world’s largest artificial jungle safari constructed entirely from scrap.

Six Themed Wildlife Zones

The Jungle Trail has been divided into six zones, each representing wildlife native to specific regions of the world:

Asia Zone: Tiger, elephant, rhinoceros, panda.

Africa Zone: Lion pride, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs.

Australia Zone: Kangaroo, koala, platypus and other indigenous species.

Europe Zone: Brown bears, deer and owls.

North & South America Zone: Grizzly bear, jaguar, condor.

Aqua Zone: Life-sized marine installations featuring sharks, whales, dolphins and octopuses.

Miyawaki Forest and Night Safari Experience

To enhance the forest-like ambience, over 3.5 lakh plants have been planted using the Miyawaki method, which helps create a dense, fast-growing green cover. Within a year, the area—which was once barren—now resembles a thick mini-jungle.

The park is also equipped with a light-and-sound system that recreates animal calls, footsteps and ambient forest sounds. After sunset, the sculptures are illuminated, creating a night-safari-like experience for visitors.

Adventure Activities for Visitors

The Jungle Trail Park doesn’t just showcase art and forest-themed installations—it also offers a range of recreational and adventure activities for visitors. Guests can try zip-lining, zip cycling, rock climbing, boating and bungee-style adventure setups, while children can enjoy dedicated play areas within the park. All adventure activities are ticketed separately from the main entry fee.
