Sariska Tiger Reserve : This park is situated only 200 km from Delhi and
107 kms from Jaipur. Although larger than Ranthambore, it is less
commercialised and has less tigers but a similar topography. It covers
an area of 800 sq km in total, with a core area of approximately 500 sq
km. The Northern Aravali Hills dominate the skyline with their mixture
of sharp cliffs and long narrow valleys. The area was declared a
sanctuary in 1955 and became a National Park in 1979. The landscape of
Sariska comprises of hills and narrow valleys of the Aravali hill range.
The topography of Sariska supports scrub-thorn arid forests, dry
deciduous forests, rocks and grasses. The broad range of wildlife here
is a wonderful example of ecological adoption and tolerance, for the
climate here is variable as well as erratic. It is located in the
contemporary Alwar district and is the legacy of the Maharajas of Alwar.
Pavilions and Temples within Sariska are ruins that hint at past riches
and glory. The nearby Kankwadi Fort has a long and turbulent history.
