The Sariska Tiger Reserve sprawls across 800 square kilometres of the Aravalis and is perhaps one of India’s most exciting wildlife reserves. Spread over a core area of 474 sq km, 250 m above sea level, the park is easily accessible, lying just three hours away from Delhi by road. Sariska is one of the few remaining forest pockets in the Aravali range that has survived the onslaught of modern times. Situated in the state of Rajasthan with a backdrop of the Aravali Hills, the park boasts of quite a few tigers and other interesting flora and fauna. There are also historical ruins and monuments within Sariska’s confines that are symbolic of its rich past. The park offers a unique opportunity to observe keenly the behavioural patterns of the animals at waterholes. With luck, sighting a tiger, chital, sambar, leopard, chinkara, or crocodile basking in the sun on the shores of the Siliserh Lake are not rare.
