A treasure for wildlife enthusiasts. Roaming this land is a rich collection of tigers, leopards and deers.
In the heart of Central India and two hours south of Nagpur is the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve, one of India’s most exciting and best-protected tiger reserves.
Dominated by teak forest and bamboo, it’s a rugged landscape comprising cliffs, caves, marshes, perennial lakes and boulder-strewn streambeds that cater to a host of biodiversity, not least the tigers, which number from 75 to 100 by the last count.
Tadoba has a series of camera traps set up around camps that continually monitor the comings and goings of the local wildlife. As the waterholes dry up in the summers and the grazing areas diminish in the upper reaches of Tadoba, herbivores like the gaur descend to the Chighghat Valley and can be seen in abundance. A leopard has been regularly sighted around the Khatoda Meadows. This area is also frequented by six tigers, including the dominant male tiger Crooked Tail and the newest entrant, the male tiger, Halleghat.
Accessed by flight from Mumbai to Nagpur, followed by a two-hour drive, Tadoba is an excellent park option to include in your itinerary if you are keen to see a tiger. The only drawback at Tadoba is that the accommodation options are not extensive and what is on offer is rather simple; however, the wildlife experience is probably the best you will have in India.
Tadoba management is proactive in offering new experiences for visitors and now includes walking trails in the buffer area and kayaking on the Irai Lake beside the park boundaries. Furthermore, machans and hideouts are planned at some waterholes.
