Glimpse tigers in India

WHAT IT'S ABOUT

Dense jungle, deep valleys, green grassland and craggy cliffs converge in Ranthambore National Park – one of the biggest and most renowned parks in northern India. It’s also home to the Ranthambore tiger reserve – and the Royal Bengal – and remains one of the best places in India to see the slinking, silent, amber-striped mammals in the wild.

But there’s not just tigers in Ranthambore: you’ll also see sloth bears, spotted deer, leopards, striped hyenas and crocodile-filled lakes amid the diverse ecosystem. Historic landmarks are also etched into the landscape, with ruins of an ancient 10th-century fort rising on a hilltop above the reserve, as well as temples serving as evocative remnants amid the natural spectacle.

WHAT OUR COMMUNITY SAYS

“An area that was once the hunting ground of Royal Bengal tigers is now a rare, protected patch of wilderness that safeguards their survival in India,” says writer Laura Holt. “Over the years it’s been visited by royals and the Rolling Stones. But the park’s resident big cats are still the main celebrity sighting.”

“When I visited, I managed to spot eight of them,” she continues. “It was a rare stroke of luck and, as with all wildlife experiences, I felt glad to be surrounded by such a beautiful landscape. Ranthambore itself is beguiling, with flame-red dhok trees dotted against the honeycombed Aravalli Hills, sari-swathed women placing incense offerings outside temples, and mischievous macaques marking your camp-bound passage at the end of each day.”
