Tiger Trails sits beside its own small lake just outside Tadoba’s boundary, drawing a genuine cross-section of the reserve’s wildlife to drink within sight of the lodge itself. It is built in the same understated Pugdundee style as its sister properties, favouring comfort and naturalist knowledge over showpiece architecture.
Cottages arranged around the lodge’s lake and gardens, each simply furnished with a private veranda and modern ensuite bathroom.
A largely organic kitchen serves regional Maharashtrian dishes alongside broader Indian and continental options, often taken lakeside.
Game drives into Tadoba-Andhari’s various zones, plus wildlife watching from the lodge’s own lake edge, which regularly draws deer, birdlife and occasionally larger predators after dark.
Tadoba’s open teak forest and grassland mix makes for some of central India’s most reliable tiger sightings, and the lodge’s naturalists are well versed in the reserve’s various resident tigresses and their shifting territories.
The lodge’s lake occasionally draws wildlife directly into frame from the property itself, worth checking at dawn and dusk even on non-safari hours.
As with its sister lodges, Tiger Trails draws heavily on local staff and supports Pugdundee’s broader community and anti-poaching initiatives around Tadoba.
