Sariska Travel

The Sariska National Park is situated near the Aravalli range in the Alwar district of Rajasthan. The park is at a distance of 200 km from Delhi and covers an area of around 800 sq km. Craggy cliffs and narrow valleys mostly dominate the entire landscape of Sariska, which was declared a sanctuary in 1955 and finally made a national park in 1979. Mainly covered by dry deciduous vegetation, Sariska is home to animals like the tiger, hyena, sambhar, wildcat, langur, wild boar, nilgai, leopard and the chital. On travel to Sariska you will be able to view these animals in their full jungle glory. However the tiger population in Sariska is fast decreasing and it is feared that the tiger is an extinct species in Sariska. The peafowl, partridge, great Indian horned owl, eagle and the white-breasted kingfisher represent the avian species. If you travel to Sariska don't forget to visit the ancient monuments scattered around the place, which are excellent places for exploration.

Sariska is one of the few wildlife sanctuaries in India that offers visitors the chance to view wildlife from very close quarters. It is well known that during the morning and evening hours in Sariska, its wildlife population heads towards many of the water holes scattered around the park. So you can just book a hide near one of these water holes, grab a camera and get your fill of wildlife viewing. Even though the park is open throughout the year, the best time to travel to Sariska is from the month of October to June.
