When to visit

The best time to visit Bandhavgarh National Park is from October to March when the weather is cool and dry. During this time, wildlife sightings are more frequent as animals come out to water sources. The park is closed during the monsoon season from July to September due to heavy rainfall.

Getting around

Visitors can explore Bandhavgarh National Park by taking jeep safaris which are organized by the park authorities. These safaris are led by experienced guides who help visitors spot wildlife and provide information about the park. Walking safaris are also available for those who prefer a more immersive experience in the wilderness.

Traveller tips

It is advisable to book safari permits in advance as they are limited and can sell out quickly, especially during peak season. Wear comfortable and neutral-colored clothing to blend in with the surroundings and increase your chances of wildlife sightings. Carry sufficient water and snacks during safaris as there are limited facilities inside the park. Respect the wildlife and maintain a safe distance from animals at all times. Make sure to follow the park rules and regulations to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. Avoid littering and help in conserving the natural habitat of the park.
