The picture-perfect tiger trail

If you're searching for an extraordinary getaway that promises thrilling wildlife encounters and a chance to immerse yourself in nature's splendour, look no further than Sariska National Park. Nestled in the ancient Aravalli hills of Rajasthan, this jewel of a park offers an unforgettable experience.

The perfect time for exploring Sariska

While Sariska is a year-round delight, the cooler months from November to March are ideal. The weather is pleasant and the wildlife tend to congregate near water sources during this period thus heightening your chances of spotting the park's magnificent residents. Venture out on early morning or evening safaris, when the wildlife is most active, and prepare to be awestruck.

Sariska is also rich in cultural heritage, with ancient temples, forts, and ruins scattered throughout the park, offering a glimpse into the region's fascinating history. You will be able to explore ancient temples, forts, and ruins that whisper stories of bygone eras. Soak in the cultural richness as you explore these antiquities, adding to the excitement of your Sariska adventure.
