The Ranthambore National Park is open from the months of October to June, and offer tourists a chance to live inside the wildlife sanctuary itself, which is more than one can ask for!

Completely opposite to the concrete jungles that you are used to, the sanctuary is blessed with a varied terrain, right from streams and dense forests to massive rock formations. Both, thick forests that one cannot even think of entering, to wild bush lands, make up the reserve.

If you are a wildlife enthusiast and if photography enthralls you, you could never ask for a better setting. The locales are home to some of the most interesting flora and fauna, and this makes it a nature lover's paradise. If you are planning to visit during the holiday season, it is best to book your rooms in advance at the Ranthambore hotels.

The Tigers here are quite used to human folk, and live in relative harmony with the many tourists who flock here to have a look at this majestic cat in its natural surroundings. Project Tiger revived the tiger population here and every effort has been made to keep things that way.

Apart from the royal cat, there are many more animals like Leopards, Hyenas, Jackals, Sloth bears, Desert cats, Porcupines, and Hedgehogs. Monitor lizards, Boars, Mongooses, and Hares are some other animals you might chance upon.

Among the grazers you will find the Sambar, the Nilgai, the Chital, Chinkaras, and the ever graceful Gazelles. Look up in the trees to find Langurs, Macaques, Five-striped Palm Squirrels, Flying Foxes, and Common Yellow Bats, among many other species.

For lovers of flora the park offers a variety of old banyan trees, Dhoks, Pipals, and even natural mangroves, as well as a host of others.

The Ranthambore Fort is completely surrounded by the very forests which the royals who lived here once used for their hunting expeditions. This fort, like many other forts in Rajasthan, too has a beautifully carved Jain temple.

The dense Bakula forests have many waterholes, which are the lifeline of wildlife here and hence makes for excellent sightings. The Kachida Valley has a sizeable panther population as well as sloth bears. Lakarda Anantpura too, has many ant hills which attracts bears so is a good place to see them in their natural habitat as well.
