Location: In Madhya Pradesh state, almost 200 kilometres northeast of Jabalpur. The nearest village is Tala, which is the access point of the park.
Opening Hours and Hunting Times
Hunting times operate twice a day, starting at dawn until late morning, and mid afternoon until sunset. The best time to visit the park is early in the morning or after 4 p.m. to spot the animals. The park is closed from July 1 to September 30 due to the monsoon(季风) season.
Bandhavgarh Zones
Bandhavgarh is divided into three main zones: Tala(the park’s best zone, with the most tigers), Magdhi(the second best zone to see tigers), and Khitauli(scenic and less visited, although tiger sightings do occur there; particularly good for birding).
Entry Fees
