Thick bamboo forests and verdant flora has made it an untamed playground for animals like, Sloth Bears, Dholes, Leopards, Indian gaur among many others. But one among them is by far the most popular, the Tiger. Home to over 100 tigers & close to 300 species of birds, this reserve is on the top of the lists of wildlife conservationists and nature lovers alike. Being so close to the Tadoba forest, a safari to the famous TATR, in search of the royal Bengal Tiger, is a must. Kolara gate is the closest entry point to the forest from the resort, but safaris can also be conducted from the neighboring Navegoan and Pangdi gates to see and experience different parts of the park. The forest department permits two safaris in a day, a five hours long morning safari and a three hours safari in the evening time. The newly declared Umred- Kharhandla Tiger Reserve is a mere hour’s drive from the resort and can be explored too. The area surrounding the resort is also blessed with an amazing array of smaller wildlife, and a nature walk along with the resort naturalists, to see the diverse flora and fauna here, is highly recommended. One can even opt to explore the wildlife of the night outside the resort and chance up on Leopards, Golden Jackals, Indian Hares, Indian Foxes, nightjars, owls and much more!
