Bandhavgarh National Park

If you’ve ever dreamed of seeing tigers in the wild head to Bandhavgarh National Park, home to India’s highest concentrations of this magnificent animal.

The park's relatively small size and thriving tiger population offer guests a remarkable chance of encountering the "king of the jungle" in its natural habitat.

Tucked between the Vindhya and Satpura mountain ranges, Bandhavgarh's landscape is a mix of dense green valleys, rocky hills, and serene waterholes. This diverse terrain, featuring mixed deciduous forests and woodlands interspersed with flat grasslands, creates the perfect environment for a variety of exotic wildlife.

In addition to tigers, visitors might also spot leopards, sloth bears, Indian bison (gaur), and several species of deer, making each safari a thrilling experience.
