Tadoba National Park is spread over an impressive 1,727 square kilometers, with the Core Zone covering around 625 sq. km, and the Buffer Zone making up the remaining 1,100+ sq. km. It is the oldest and largest national park in Maharashtra, declared a Project Tiger Reserve in 1995.

The reserve takes its name from the Taru tribal god ‘Tadoba’ and the Andhari River, which snakes through the forest like a lifeline — a moody, seasonal waterbody where many legendary encounters have taken place.

Tadoba National Park is located in the Chandrapur district, and is accessible from Nagpur, which is just a 3-hour drive away — perfect for those who want to swap urban buzz for tiger trails without wasting a day in transit.
