Ranthambore Safari Zones
In this article I will explain about Ranthambore Safari Zones (Gates), how to select one, how to book one, what factors are critical in choosing the right one, also about how to choose and book the right hassle-free Ranthambore Packages, while related blogs below will explain how to go about for further information.
Ranthambore Safari Zones – What, How many and How to pick the right one
Ranthambore Tiger Reserve & National Park is a national park, wildlife sanctuary & a tiger reserve in the Sawai Madhopur District of the state of Rajasthan, around 160 kms from Jaipur, 375 kms from Delhi, & approx. 7 kms from Sawai Madhopur Railway Station.
There are 10 safari gates/zones all across park and are separated by approx. 20kms to 80 kms between the gates. You could hire a gypsy from all of these gates or you could get into a canter (22-seater mini-bus) (not all gates has canter facility) but you need an advance online reservation for the same.
Which Ranthambore Safari Zones are good?
All are good but what matters is for what reason are you visiting Ranthambore. If its for tigers (as most do), then always pick Ranthambore Safari Zones – Zone 1 to Zone 6 (you need to book 100 to 20 days ahead else they get sold out in no time) but if you are there to just enjoy the forest or birding, Ranthambore Safari Zones Zone 7 to Zone 10 are as good.
Also what to choose within Zone 1 to Zone 6 is also tricky and all depends on tiger movements that day and that you can’t predict some 100 days early but you can make some guesses. Download WildTrails India app and keep an eye on Sightings and you can make an educated guess for sure (or drop an email to [email protected] and we will help)
Words of Caution: You can do it on your own but it’s very painful and confusing process to book the safari online and also it is one the most popular tiger reserves and hence you need to book way too early. Also what resorts are attached to what gates are also confusing. Also what gate to pick for the dates you choose is also very crucial. If you are doing it for the first time, better for experts to do it else everything goes for a mess. Anyways we use technology, algorithms, data crunching and lot more based on sightings and tiger movements to increase your chances of sighting a tiger.
Ranthambore Safari Zones Gates Locations:
Gates for Zone 1 to 5 are same entry and for Zone 6 is just a few Kms from the entry gate of Zone 1 to Zone 5 but Zone 7 to Zone are pretty far from the [40 to 70 kms] entry point. So be careful on where you book the Safari (Game drive) and where you book your resort. The Exact geo locations of all these gates/zones are mentioned in the WildTrails India App.
