Bandhavgarh National Park in October
Madhya Pradesh, India
Go in October — tigers are most active post-monsoon and the park reopens uncrowded, though some zones may open late and occasional rain can halt safaris.
October cracks Bandhavgarh open to a transformed forest — monsoon green, swollen streams, and tigers that have spent three months forgetting what a jeep looks like.
