Central India's green heart pairs one of the country's finest tiger reserves with its only Satpura hill station.

Kanha

Sal forests and open meadows that inspired The Jungle Book — tigers, the rare barasingha swamp deer, and superb birdlife.

Pachmarhi

A cool, forested plateau of waterfalls, caves and the state's highest sunset point at Dhoopgarh. The park runs October to June — carry binoculars and neutral clothing.
