We zijn van plan om een 3-tal weken door Noord-India te trekken in juli-augustus 2012: Delhi, Shekhawati, Bikaner, Jaisalmer + Desert National Park, Jodhpur, Jaipur, Agra + Keoladeo National Park, Delhi. Daar we een mix willen van cultuur en natuur zijn we nog op zoek naar een nationaal park in de (ruimere) omgeving van de reisroute dat open is in juli of begin augustus. We hebben al een aantal parken gevonden maar de meeste blijken gesloten :tear:. Iemand tips ?
Heb net even snel op GoogleMaps zitten kijken… als je wat meer inzoomt komen ook de kleinere national parken in beeld.
Ben het volgende tegengekomen over Sariska National Park (maximaal 4h reizen vanaf Delhi, 2u vanaf Jaipur):
*'Sariska Tiger Reserve remain open form 1st October to 30th June for all seven days of the week.
All other Tiger reserves, National parks, Wildlife sanctuaries of India remain close for three months during Monsoon (Rainy season) from 1st July to 30th September.
Unlike all other Tiger reserves, National parks and Wildlife sanctuaries of India, Sariska Tiger Reserve management provide access during Monsoon (Rainy season from 1st July to 30th September) only two days in a week on Tuesday and Saturday between 08:00 hrs. to 15:00 hrs. to pilgrims and tourists up to Pandupol Hanuman (Monkey God) Temple. Pandupol is a natural, legendry and religious site and is located in serene dense forests with magnificent rock formations, streams and rich avifaunal species.'*
Misschien is het dus een idee om via GoogleMaps zelf parken op te sporen en de sites te bekijken?

Op ongeveer 250 km afstand van New Delhi ligt het Jim Corbett National Park.
Dat is beperkt geopend in de zomer.
De website zegt het volgende:
*Main Season Visit Corbett National Park :
The best time to visit Corbett Park is from 15th November to 15th June because during this period of time all the tourism zones are opens for tourist where every wildlife lover can fully enjoy the entire Corbett National Park jungle area. The gates are closed at sunset and no night driving is allowed.
Monsoon (July - September) :
This is the best time for those who want to avoid crowd and want to spent time for walking and trekking. This is the best time to observe flora in Corbett. Avoid crowed weekends on that time.
Winter (October - February) :
This is best time for birds watching and catches the sight of Tiger. Nights get very cold. One can enjoy full jungle adventure on that period.
Summer (March to June) :
Summer season is the ideal time for sighting animals*
