Sher Bagh
Sher Bagh is a
Jungle Lodge situated at the edge of the Ranthambhore
National Park in Raja sthan.
It's set amidst trees on a private estate, overlooking a
valley and along its northern periphery. It is a ten
minute drive from the main entrance of the reserve.
The drive to the
resort, which is located a little beyond the turn off to
the park entrance, is a bit of an adventure in itself but
once you're there you'll definitely feel it's worth the
effort and probably find that it adds to the required
atmosphere.
Tents that seem
out of an exotic movie with treasure chests and antique
marvels. The beds are actually specially designed to give
your body the perfect support and relax you almost
instantly. The resort has a reading section with a sizable
collection of books on wildlife.
Accommodation
The camp
consists of 12 luxurious bedroom tents with attached
verandahs and bathrooms, a dining tent, a cafe and lots of
verdant spaces in which to loll! Originally designed for
The Maharaja of Jodhpur at the turn of last century.
These tents were used on hunting expeditions. They also
catered for an overflow of guests at the palace and even
for Vice Regal and Royal visits. Tented cities used to
spring up and provide extreme comfort even in the remotest
of locations.

Safari Drives :
The Ranthambhore National Park is said to be the
finest place in the world to see wild tigers. It is open
to visitors for eight hours a day, broken into two
segments - morning and afternoon. While the timings change
marginally depending on the time of sunrise and sunset,
they are usually from 06:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. for the
Morning drive, and 2:00 p.m. to 6 p.m. for the afternoon
drive. There are two ways to go for your Jungle Safari.
The first is
on a 6-seater ‘Jeep’. The Rajasthan Forest Department
allows only 15 Jeeps into the park on a first cum basis,
hence the urgency for early bookings. The other is the 20
seater ‘Canter’ Safari Vehicle. A seat can be booked even
on arrival at Camp, but it is advisable to book this in
advance during peak season, December and January.
Note
: There are 2 safaris each day
General
timings (subject to change) are:
The Rajasthan Forest
Department strictly regulates entry into the National
Park.
All Tariffs are subject to change without notice.
