TigerTrails Jungle Lodges located in Tadoba, Maharashtra is a very fine example of how the owners have combined saving nature with allowing people to see it, enjoy it and care for it. Ringed on three sides by the Park forest, the lodge is an extension of the Tiger reserve and is located adjacent to the Khutwanda gate, which is the entry point into the National Park. The Lodge area is untouched by any kind of tourism or development and offers the guest complete privacy. Since the forest starts from a few feet away of the Lodge, tiger calls come creeping close. Trail Cameras introduced a decade ago monitor their forests for wildlife activities and can be seen online. Tadoba is the only tiger centric park in India to offer nature visitors a wide range of wildlife viewing opportunities from full day jeep safaris and photographic hides to canoe and walking safaris.
