History & Overview
Discover Ranthambore
Located in the Aravalli Range in Rajasthan, this is a well known park around the world due to its proximity to Jaipur and New Delhi.
The people there tell you stories of legendary Tigers such as “Machli” and “Ustad”, the former being the the Tiger responsible for putting Ranthambore on the World Map with several documentaries depicting her life as “The Lady of the Lakes”.
The landscape itself is extremely interesting, as several large lakes provide life for the animals which live there, Savannah grasslands provide feed and are excellent hunting spots for the large Ungulates. The Park was a former hunting ground of the Maharajas of Jaipur, and its old Forts and outposts adorn the place, adding to its uniqueness.
The Tigers here are large in size, and with very limited corridors for dispersal live and die within the landscape itself. It is a photographers dream, and one never goes away disappointed after a safari to Ranthambore.
