Bandhavgarh National Park Holidays

Set in the Satpura Hills and smaller than other national parks, Bandhavgarh is home to around 60 tigers and therefore has one of the highest tiger densities of any park in the country. Although never guaranteed, this is one of the best places for tiger spottings. Traverse great rocky hills, deciduous forests, marshes and meadows, and on the lookout you may spot other mammals such as panthers, leopards, sloth bears and sambar deer. The park is closed 01 Jul-15 Oct and Wednesday afternoons.

Game Drive

Tracking tigers in Bandhavgarh National Park is like living out your every jungle fantasy. Bandhavgarh, like all of India’s national parks, is divided up into different zones only one of which you can explore on each outing. On a full day safari though you can explore all four zones which is a little more expensive but fantastic. The star attraction is the park’s Bengal tigers of which researchers still only know around 8% of their behavioural patterns. Among the huge array of fauna, there are also leopard, sloth bears, four species of deer and a multitude of bird life. The topography is riveting; tall sal trees, sloping hills, vast grassland and thick forest. Each animal sighting is as unique as the next but there’s nothing more special than seeing the distinctive stripes of your first tiger sighting.
