How to reach Bandhavgarh
From Jabalpur, take a train to Umaria(4½hr., 5:50am., Tu, Th, F, Su
10pm; sleeper Rs121). If you are coming from the north, catch the
train to Umaria from Katni, 18km south of Satna. Buses sometimes run
between Umaria and Tata Village, the sole gateway to Bandhavgarh; a
better bet is the shared jeeps that depart from the market.
History

Purana. It has been saud that Bandhavgarh’s fort was built by two

oldest signs of Bandhavgarh are caves dug into the sandstone to the
north of the fort. |
