Known to host two thirds of the
world’s wild Tiger population, India is the best place in the world if you’re
looking forward to having a rendezvous with the biggest member of the Big Cat
family. A major credit for this goes to the well maintained national parks of
the country, which have been able to sustain large population of Tigers.
Another reason is the values of the local tribes and communities that coexist
with these animals. The fact that they consider them as brethren instead of
savage beasts has played a major role in protecting the wildlife. A visit to
these national parks guarantees not only sightings of these majestic creatures
but also gives you a glimpse into the lives of indigenous tribes that live with
them. These are the best places in India to look for the fabled Royal Bengal
Tigers.
Kanha National park
Located in Madhya Pradesh, Kanha
National Park is one of the largest national parks of India, stretching from
Madhya Pradesh to Maharashtra. The park hosts a large number of Tigers and
possibly the biggest Tiger of Central India, son of legendary tiger Munna, the
Umarpani Male. There are many interesting stories surrounding this Tiger which
make him one of the most sought after Tigers in the whole country. Who knows,
this elusive beast might be planning to grace you with his presence.

Established in 1936 by Jim
Corbett, who became a conservationist, renouncing his hunting career, Corbett
National Park in Uttarakhand is the first national park of India and home to
over 200 Royal Bengal Tigers. Set in the backdrop of Nainital hills, this picturesque
park represents the marriage of wilderness and beauty. The Tiger Camp in
Corbett is particularly famous for its wildlife and you’re more likely to spot
a tiger here than anywhere else. Different forest zones, special tours, jungle
safaris, deluxe cottages and all modern amenities will augment your visit to
the park that has adventure written all over it.
Inspiration to Rudyard Kipling’s
“The Jungle Book”, Pench National Park is yet another gem of Madhya Pradesh. It
is named after the Pench river that meanders through the park, providing a
perfect habitat for a variety of water birds. However, the park is most famous
for its Royal Bengal Tigers that roam the jungles here. Don’t be surprised if
you get multiple Tiger sightings as this place is blessed with high number of
tigers. Vannraj Resort is one of the best lodges to stay at while you are
visiting Pench. Geared with all amenities this luxury lodge can add stars to
your already starry experience.
Sundarbans National Park
Known to be the world’s largest
mangrove ecosystem, Sundarbans National Park boasts of harbouring the most
unique wildlife, including the incredible Royal Bengal Tigers. The dense
impenetrable forests prevent human intrusion and provide a perfect opportunity
for wildlife to bloom. The best way to observe wildlife of Sundarbans is to
climb atop one of the four watchtowers. Your stay at the park could be even
more enriching should you choose to stay at the Mangrove Whistler Villa which
is an eco-lodge where you can indulge in a host of activities such as Village
Visits, Photography Walks, Boat Safaris etc. that can make your experience even
more enjoyable.
Bandhavgarh National Park
Believed to have the highest
Tiger density, Bandhavgarh National Park is your best bet if you’re looking
forward to an encounter with the fabled feline. The large open grasslands of
Bandhavgarh make it easier to spot Tigers than other places like Corbett and
Kaziranga, which is why the Tigers of Bandhavgarh have been extensively studied.
This could easily be the only park where you could actually guarantee Tiger
sightings. Monsoon Forest is an eco lodge in the vicinity of the park, where
you can make your stay to have an enriching wildlife experience.
