Ranthambhor National park is one of the prime examples of Project Tiger’s conservation efforts in Rajasthan.

The park itself covers some 400 sq. km and its scenery is very beautiful. A system of lakes and rivers is hemmed in by steep high crags and, on top of one of these, is the extensive and well-preserved fortress of Ranthambhor, built in the 10th century. The lower-lying ground alternates between open bushland and fairly dense forest and is peppered with ruined pavilions, chhatris (tombs) and ‘hides’ - the area was formerly a hunting preserve of the maharajas.

Wild life found here are tiger, panther, hyaena, jackal, sambar, chital & nilgai.

A good network of gravel tracks crisscrosses the park and safaris are undertaken in open-sided jeeps drive by a ranger. The best time to visit the park is between October & April. The park is closed from 01 June to 01 Oct.
