Detailed Overview

  • Bandipur is considered one of the best and best-maintained national parks in India. Bandipur was established as a Tiger Reserve in 1974 under the Project Tiger initiative of the Indian Government. The Bandipur National Park covers about 880 sq. km. of area and is a vibrant habitat for over 100 species of animals, including tigers (of course), elephants, chitals, bison, sambhar, sloth bears, etc. This park is adjoined by Mudumalai National Park in Tamil Nadu and Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary of Kerala, making this area the largest biosphere reserve in India. 
  • Nagarhole National Park, also known as Rajiv Gandhi National Park, is a wildlife reserve in the South Indian state of Karnataka. Part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, the park is backed by the Brahamagiri Mountains and filled with sandalwood and teak trees. The Kabini River winds through jungle landscapes, home to tigers, Asian elephants and a variety of birds. Nearby, the Irupu Falls cascade down tree-lined rocks.
