Run by India Tourism Development Corporation Ltd. (ITDC), Bharatpur Forest Lodge is ideal for those who love Nature. You can see jackals prowling noiselessly in the gardens of the hotel at night from the safety of your rooms, and wake at dawn break with delightful chirping of birds in trees just outside your window. Conveniently located close to the Golden Triangle destinations, Bharatpur National Park is 190 km from Delhi and just 50 km from Agra and forms one of the major highlights of the North India Wildlife Tours and Rajasthan Tours.
The bird population rises incredibly with the arrival of monsoons as migratory waterfowls, including rare Siberian Cranes, come to the park in millions. Waterfowls of the park include bareheaded geese, pintail ducks, ruddy and common shelduck, common teal, widgeon, shoveler, red crested pochard, gadwall, and mallard. Predatory birds include imperial eagle, marsh harrier and laggar falcon. Common Indian birds found here include Kingfishers, Red Vented Bulbuls, Quails, Partridges, Parakeets, Sunbirds, and Sparrows.
