Forest Activities
There’s something exhilarating about standing beneath magnificent trees and
breathing in the forest air. With so many national parks and wildlife
sanctuaries in India, there is a range of forest activities to choose from be it
camping, bird watching or safaris in the wild. You can track tigers in
Ranthambore National Park, an outstanding example of Project Tiger’s efforts at tiger conservation in
India. You can go a wildlife safari in Corbett National Park in Uttaranchal. You
can enjoy an elephant safari in Kaziranga National Park in Assam. You can camp
in Samode Bagh or Pushkar in Rajasthan during the annual camel fair in November.
