Rank : 10.0 (average on 2 votes)Coordinates : 22.281891, 80.612484 ( Open in Google Maps) Subjects : Bengal tiger in primis, much more easily than in Bardhavgarh above all in the period December-January when the sighting becomes more difficult because of the cold climate. Then all the rest of the Indian fauna: Indian Leopard (Panthera Pardus Fusca), Labiata Bear, Gaur, Asian Jackal, Jungle Cat, wild boar, Sambar, Pomellato, Nilgai, Chinkara, black buck and it is also possible to see the wild Indian dog, very rare too. The choice of avifauna, eagles, kingfishers, owls, peacocks, storks, herons, Indian marabu and vultures. A very rich biodiversity.Recommended equipment : Telephoto lens from 400 upwards, the multiplier is highly recommended. Generally you will not have the chance to put the stand on a jeep, I recommend the monopod. The 100-400, the 500 and even the 600 are very good. I personally preferred the more versatile choice of the 100-400 + multiplier. Enough short if necessary for less suspicious animals (cervids, wild boars, some birds) that you will have the opportunity to get very close. Powerful enough, especially if multiplied, to photograph more distant animals or birdlife.Best months : The best period with the greatest chance of sighting is: March, April, May and early June. Great chance to see the tiger even in the period December, January. Much more than in Bandhvagarh!How to get there : Normally you take flight from Delhi to Jabalpur. From Jabalpur are 200km (about 3-4 hours by car). I recommend you take a package (also in combination with Bandhvagarh) and be picked up directly in Jabalpur. Absolutely not driven alone, too dangerous for traffic and road conditions.Visits : Usually you buy a Safari package, the park opens for two safari sessions, in the mornings and afternoons and times vary according to the period in which you go, but follow the sunrise and sunset times for the opening and closing of the gates. Booking a Jeep is not easy and should be done on time, otherwise you risk staying on foot, as the number of Jeeps allowed in the park is limited and strictly controlled at the entrance to the Gate.Notes : The park really deserves a lot, especially for those who want to better photograph the Bengal Tigers, as they are many in a relatively small area. On average, the sighting of the tiger is guaranteed once every two safaris. | | Nearby:   Bandhavgarh National Park 154 km
