Frequently asked questions.
Satpura is open October to June. Because it offers boat and walking safaris, it explores beautifully in the greener shoulder months too, though the hot months are best for concentrated tiger sightings.
Satpura's variety of activities makes it rewarding across the whole season.
It's one of the very few Indian reserves where you can do far more than jeep safaris — walking safaris in the core, kayaking, boat safaris on the Denwa and night safaris in the buffer. It's a forest you experience at eye level.
Always private — your own jeep, boat and walking guide, so you can build a stay around the activities that appeal to you.
Your Satpura,planned properly.
No commitment — just a conversation about dates, group, and the kind of trip you want.
