The park is located near the Panchet Dam, which is one of the four multi-purpose dams included in the first phase of the Damodar Valley Corporation project.
The facility is positioned within a region known for its transition between the plains and the hilly topography of the Chota Nagpur Plateau.
The surrounding Panchet area is a significant site for observing regional flora and fauna due to its proximity to the Damodar River.
The Snake Park in Panchet, Jharkhand, is an educational wildlife facility situated in the vicinity of the Panchet Dam reservoir. It specializes in the display and conservation awareness of indigenous reptilian species found within the Chota Nagpur Plateau region. The facility serves as a focal point for visitors exploring the wider Panchet tourism circuit, which centers on the dam and surrounding forest landscapes. Its modest exhibits are primarily focused on local biodiversity rather than large-scale exotic animal collections. The site maintains a quiet, observational atmosphere, prioritizing the safety and enclosure of varied snake species native to the tropical forests of Jharkhand.
