The Ranthambhore National Park located near Sawai Madhopur, 165 km from Jaipur forms a vital link in Project Tiger initiated by Mrs. Indira Gandhi. Spread over 392 sq km the park is famous for its plentiful tiger sightings.

The Ranthambhore fort, impregnable in defence against the maruding Alauddin Khilji until a traitor opened the door to him, still provides an awesome spectacle. The inhabitants of the forest include tigers, sloth bears, leopards, jackals, foxes, sambhar, crocodiles, langurs and a wide variety of birds.

Location :

165 km from Jaipur which is the nearest airport. Nearest railhead is Sawai Madhopur (12 km)

Best time to visit :

October to March. The Park is closed from June to October. While May and June are hot, the increasing scarcity of water as summer approaches makes wildlife sighting easier as the animals flock to the waterholes.

Minimum stay recommended :

2 to 3 nights.
