Ranthambore National Park is located in Sawai Madhopur district of Rajasthan, about 130 Km from Jaipur. Formerly, it was a hunting ground for the Royal family of Jaipur. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is known for its large Tiger population. Ranthambore safari is a perfect outing for wildlife viewing.
It is bounded to the north by the Banas River and to the south by the Chambal River. It is named after the historic Ranthambore Fort, which lies within the park. It was declared one of the Project Tiger reserves in 1973. Apart from tigers, the sanctuary has its share of leopards, too.
The entry point to the National Park from Sawai Madhopur town takes the visitor to the foot of the Ranthambore fort and the forest rest house Jogi Mahal. India's second-largest banyan tree rules supreme here with its visiting langur troupe. In front of the forest rest house is Padam Talao (tank) which takes its name from the water lilies in it. At the far end is the Raj Bagh Talao followed by Milak Talao which dries up in summer. These lakes attract considerable concentrations of ungulates which in turn attract tigers. On several occasions they have been seen from the edge of the lake and Jogi Mahal itself, hunting or resting in the water. Drives around these lakes are a wildlife photographer's dream. From Jogi Mahal one can take pleasant drives to Nal Ghati and Lahpur through the enchanting Dhok Avenue, to Bakaula. and Anantpur via Lakarda, or to Kachida valley and Anantpura. These are the most frequented routes visitors take and both morning and evening outings are rewarding as animals are active at that time. A jeep is a must as the forest roads make it rather tough going at places.
For game drives, Ranthambore National Park has options of jeep safari, canter safari, and even elephant rides. Ranthambore National Park hosts deciduous forests and wildlife such as Bengal tiger, Indian leopard, nilgai, wild boar, sambar, striped hyena, sloth bear, southern plains gray langur, rhesus macaque, mugger crocodile and chital. The sanctuary is home to a wide variety of trees, plants, birds and reptiles, as well as one of the largest banyan trees in India.
