Bandhavgarh National Park, India

Bandhavgarh National Park – A Compact Wildlife Haven in Madhya Pradesh

Located in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, Bandhavgarh National Park is the smallest of the three key parks in the region, yet one of the most rewarding for wildlife enthusiasts. Easily accessible via train to Umaria, just 45 kilometers away, the park covers a compact area of 105 square kilometers.

Bordering a small village, the park’s periphery is dotted with welcoming lodges and jungle camps, providing close proximity to nature without sacrificing comfort.

Diverse Terrain and Rich Wildlife
The landscape of Bandhavgarh is a beautiful blend of dense sal and bamboo forests interspersed with open marshlands—a habitat that supports an impressive array of wildlife. Visitors can encounter wild boar, jackals, sambar deer, and, most notably, a thriving population of Bengal tigers, making it one of the best places in India to spot these majestic predators in the wild.
