About

Located 225 km away from Nagpur, the Melghat Tiger Reserve rests in the South of the Satpura Hill Range and was the first official tiger reserve of Maharashtra in 1974. Among other exotic animal and bird species, this reserve is one of the few areas around the world to house the critically endangered Forest Owlet.

While you can book a safari through the forest to spot the Indian Gaur, Leopard, Nilgai, Sambar Deer, Sloth Bear, and other species of wild animals, a night safari is an experience that you will not forget in a long time. While the Melghat Tiger Reserve enjoys pleasant weather all year long, it is best enjoyed during the winter months. If you are an adventure enthusiast, you can enjoy activities such as elephant rides, kayaking, zorb balling, trekking and river-crossing among others. And if you have an interest in culture, you can book a tribal dance show to view the culture of the tribes native to this region.
