Kanha National Park

Kanha, one of India’s most iconic tiger reserves, is a sprawling expanse of sal and bamboo forests, rolling meadows, and crystal-clear streams that inspired Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book. Located in the heart of Madhya Pradesh, it offers a thrilling mix of wilderness and tranquility. Visitors can embark on jeep safaris to spot the majestic Royal Bengal Tiger, leopards, barasingha (swamp deer), and a rich diversity of birdlife. Beyond the safaris, Kanha enchants with its lush landscapes, tribal culture, and eco-friendly lodges that blend seamlessly with nature.

The best time to visit is from October to June, with peak wildlife sightings between February and May.
