About This Journey
Bandhavgarh National Park in Madhya Pradesh holds the highest tiger density of any reserve in India, making it the country's most reliable destination for Bengal tiger sightings. The park's varied terrain — sal forests, meadows, and rocky hills — is crowned by the ancient Bandhavgarh Fort, which tigers have famously made their own. Beyond tigers, leopards, sloth bears, gaur, and over 250 bird species reward every zone drive. The nearby Sanjay-Dubri Tiger Reserve and Kanha National Park (3.5 hrs) form part of the central Indian tiger corridor. The town of Umaria provides the base, while the temples of Khajuraho (just 2.5 hrs) offer a compelling cultural extension. Best visited October to June; peak sightings in April and May.
