Welcome to Ranthambore National Park

Ranthambore National Park is roughly 13.5 kilometres from Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan's capital. This spot, at the confluence of the Aravali and Vindhya hill ranges, is one of the best sites to see wild animals, as they are accustomed to being watched. The park is around 400 square kilometres in size, and when coupled with the Sawai Man Singh Sanctuary region, it is approximately 500 square kilometres.

The structures in Ranthambore National Park harken back to a bygone period. Throughout the park, there are several water features that provide great relief to the wild animals during the searing hot summer days. A massive fort, after which the park is called, stands on a hill overlooking the park. Many ruins from bygone ages may be found strewn throughout the jungle, giving it a distinct, wonderful, and mixed flavour of nature, history, and fauna. Tigers have been seen to hunt in front of human visitors at Ranthambore National Park.

History of Ranthambore Tiger Reserve

The Government of India established Ranthambore National Park as Sawai Madhopur Game Sanctuary in 1955. It was designated as one of India's Project Tiger reserves in 1973. Ranthambore was declared a national park on November 1, 1980, and the forests adjacent to it were given the names Sawai Man Singh Sanctuary and Keladevi Sanctuary.
