Ranthambore National Park
Ranthambhore Tiger Reserve in the Indian state of Rajasthan comprises distinct
areas with varied conservation and virtually separated geographically, with
mere narrow corridors linking them.
The Ranthambhore National Park, at the junction of the Aravalis and the Bindhyas,
is a unique juxtaposition of natural and historical richness, standing out conspicuously
in a vast arid and denuded tract of eastern Rajasthan, barely 14 kilometer from
the town of Sawai Madhopur. It is spread over a highly undulating topography,
varying from gentle to steep slopes, from flat-topped hills (Indala, Doodh-Bhat
and Chiroli) of the Bindhyas to the conical hillocks (Lahpur, Nalghati, Khachida,
Anantpur etc.) to narrow, rocky gorges. An important geological feature, the
"Great Boundary Fault" where the Bindhyas were brought against the
much ancient Aravalis, passes from here.
