This is among the more accessible parks in the project because it is urban, though exact gate, path, and restroom accessibility should be checked locally.
Kasu Brahmananda Reddy National Park, widely known as KBR Park, is an urban refuge carved out of Hyderabad's rocky Deccan landscape. Surrounded by the city's Banjara Hills and Jubilee Hills districts, it protects dry scrub, tree cover, and urban biodiversity while functioning as one of Hyderabad's most important public green lungs.

Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Hyderabad, is the main gateway.
Secunderabad, Hyderabad Deccan, and nearby MMTS/Metro links serve the city approach.
The park sits inside western Hyderabad and is easily reached from Jubilee Hills and Banjara Hills roads.
Use taxis, app-based cabs, metro-plus-cab combinations, or private vehicles from anywhere in Hyderabad.
Dry scrub woodland, native shrubs, rocky outcrops, grass patches, and planted urban tree cover typical of the Deccan Plateau.
KBR Park supports small mammals, reptiles, birds, insects, and peafowl in a rare urban conservation setting within Hyderabad.
KBR Park was protected as a national park in 1998, preserving one of Hyderabad's most valuable urban ecological spaces amid rapid expansion of the city.
