Travel Tips for Sawai Madhopur
Best time to go...
by husain
The park is open for visitors from 1st October to 30th June.
The temperatures in summer though can reach 45 degrees cel at its peak. It is perhaps a better option to avoid trips in summer. However, Tigers are more visible during summer. Probably due to the fact that there may be less undergrowth in terms of vegetation, and therefore less room to hide.
The period between November and Feb is probably the best time to visit. Winters, at their peak, can also be fairly cold. Temperatures can go down to 2 or 3 degrees cel. Tigers, and most of the animals, are generally more active during the winter months, and its a great time to see birds.
Chinkara
by grets
This Indian gazelle is the smallest asiatic antelope. It grows to a maximum height of 65 cms and weighs only about 25 kgs. Most males have very short horns, although some grow to a length of 25 - 30 cms. Found mostly in open woodlands and scrublands, their numbers have largely reduced and they now feature on the endangered list. They have a life expectancy of 12 - 15 years
North Indian Flap Shelled Turtles
by grets
Latin name: Lissemys punctata
Found throughout India, the turtle is common and not considered endangereed. It is found in ponds and rivers and will grow to a maximum size of 35 cm. It lays 3-8 eggs during September to December, and eats small fish and insects.
Photographs? Bring a quick telephoto lens
by pchamlis
I'm not a big "packing tip" guy here on VT. You'll probably notice that I seldom write them. BUT... for visiting Ranthambhore and photographing both the vistas, scenics and (of course) the animals, you need to bring along a quick telephoto lens, 300 mm or larger. You want something that can get you a low f-stop to let in as much light as possible, especially shooting under the trees. If you have a film camera, you'll want plenty of high speed quality color film. If you're doing SLR digital, set your camera to mimic ISO 1250 or higher under the trees.
And happy shooting.
Jogi Mahal
by grets
The Jogi Mahal, the forest rest house, used to operate as acoomodation for guests. It is now unfortunately closed, as its unrivalled location would make for a memorable stay. Next to the guest house is the second largest banyan tree in the world.
