Central India
Tuli Tiger Corridor
Tuli Tiger Corridor is a peaceful forest lodge set within 22 acres of woodland in the buffer zone of Pench Tiger Reserve, close to Turia Gate. Built with natural materials and warm, earthy tones, it offers a relaxed, rustic atmosphere with accommodation in spacious stone cottages or large, elevated tents overlooking a small lake. All rooms feature king‑size beds, generous en-suite bathrooms and private decks, with the tents also offering air‑conditioning, heaters and comfortable furnishings for year‑round stays.
At the centre of the property is The Habitat, a friendly restaurant and bar serving Indian, continental and Chinese dishes prepared with fresh local ingredients. A swimming pool and Ayurvedic spa provide welcome relaxation between safari drives, while the grounds attract plentiful birdlife and occasional langur visitors. The lodge operates its own safari vehicles and naturalist guides, offering easy access to Pench’s superb habitat and wildlife.

Local Wildlife
Pench is part of the Project Tiger network of special reserves and one of the most accessible tiger reserves in the country, at just 90 kilometres north of Nagpur. It is also one of the most beautiful of the tiger parks with mature teak forests, rolling hills and the central Pench River from which the park gets its name. Descriptions of its natural beauty and richness of flora and fauna have appeared in numerous wildlife books dating back to the 17th century. Books written in the 19th and early 20th century by famous naturalists like Captain J. Forsyth explicitly present the detailed panorama of nature’s abundance in this precious forest tract. There are around 54 tigers in the park and sightings are not always as regular as the nearby parks of Kanha and Bandhavgarh. This means that the park receives fewer tourists than its neighbours and game drives are focussed more on seeing the general wildlife of the park such as leopards, sloth bears, wild dog, barking deer and more than 170 species of bird.
Optional Activities
Morning and afternoon safaris in the national park. During daytime at the hotel guests can take a nature walk, read about the local species or simply relax by the pool or with a spa treatment. Slide shows or wildlife films may be shown in the evenings, and a bonfire is lit around which guests can mingle, or watch a local tribal dance display.

To mark respect for local cultures, it is requested that guests do not wear revealing or off the shoulder clothing. Bright colours are also discouraged as they may disrupt animals whilst on safari.
