Visitors are greeted by a huge map of the Sundarbans at the tourist center’s launch area. The “Monkey Trail,” a crooked wooden pathway, marks the start of the journey. As the name suggests, the trail is lined with Rhesus monkeys, which are common in the Sundarbans. Pine trees abound in the dense forest that encircles the trail on both sides.
Visitors can find a stop at the animal bank about half a kilometer south of the main route. Travelers will eventually arrive at a small canal bank where a watchtower provides a fantastic view of Karamjal as they continue along the wooden trail. A pair of saltwater crocodiles known as Romeo and Juliet are among those that can be seen at the crocodile breeding facility, which is where the trail eventually ends. Juliet has contributed significantly to the artificial crocodile breeding program in Bangladesh by producing a large number of eggs.
The afternoon arrival of wild Chitra deer in herds is another captivating sight for tourists. They approach tourists fearlessly to take food from their hands, creating a special and unforgettable experience.
Foreign visitors must pay 300 taka, while domestic visitors must pay 20 taka per person to enter Karamjal. Students and children (under the age of twelve) pay a discounted ticket price of Rs.
