The national park derives its name from an ancient fort situated in the area. It nestles in the vindhya mountain ranges of central India and has the highest density of tigers in the country. There are approximately 46-52 tigers that can be spotted here.
The thick forest of bandhavgarh sit in a bowl surrounded by cliffs and the density wooded vindhya mounded ranges. Its verdant plains and reed covered wetlands are home to kingfisher and egrets. Vultures also make the sheer cliffs their home.
Once, the hunting reserve of the royal family of rewa, bandhavgarh was home to the exclusive white tiger. However no white tiger has been reported from the wild in last 50 years, and it is believed that a less than a dozen have been seen India in the last 100 years. Wandering through the park on elephant back, the chances of spotting a tiger are quite good. Wildlife enthusiasts can also spot nilgai, chausingha, chinkara, wild boar fox and jackals
