The Tighra Dam, located near Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh, is a notable site for both its practical utility and scenic beauty. Built across the Tighra River, this dam primarily serves as a crucial water reservoir, supporting agricultural activities and providing water for local communities.

Nice place. Tigra Dam has been constructed on Sank River in 1916. This dam has been constructed in the vicinity of eleven villages. The villagers depend on this dam for their irrigation, drinking and domestic purpose. Moreover, the dam also provides the water required for the drinking purpose in the Gwalior City. One of the negative and gadha impacts of Tigra dam is that it is constructed in Ghatigora Goan. After the construction of the dam the area became a suitable habitat for several birds and this area was later declared as a Bird Sanctuary. However this also led to the relocation of the people that was residing in the surrounding area of the dam. Despite the positive attributes like control of stream regime, prevention of flood, water for irrigation, dams still present negative impacts on the environment. Some of the negative impacts that can be mentioned are water logging, land loss, relocation of people and silt formation.

Hi guys 👦 Welcome back to my new Google review on tighra dam. 1. Distance from DD Nagar to Dam is around 25-30 km depending upon the route you choose. 2. Dam is good but not upto the standard which I was earlier assumed. 3. Last 10km part of the road is single sided and broken. 4. Water level was down, this may vary depending upon weather conditions. 5. Boating 🚢 🚣♂️ facilities is available but I was not interested because I had already used boating in kullu-manali ❣️ 6. Boating price is mentioned in photo, please refer from there. 7. Suggestions:- This is one of the famous tourist palace of M.P so it should be upto the standard like sukhna lake in chandigarh. Thanks to view my complete review. Have a nice day. Please like, share and follow

This place is amazing. You gonna love this place. The still water and greenery is good.the boating is good but i should suggest to do boating on a legal boats which is safe as these boats have safty jacket and other emergency items as most of the people do boating on illegal boats as these have less charges but these boats carry more peoples then it can carry so it can be so dangerous as the tighra is deep and it also have dangerous allegators.some people come here to do picnics and throw there remaining so they should also keep this place clean and it is not only the responsibility of the workers it is also our responsibility to keep this beautiful, neat and tiddy. the way to come this place is not good and also not safe sometimes.

What a wonderful place, within 15km from the city. Enjoy fresh air, sunset or sunrise away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. How to reach:- If you are outsider like me you can book an Auto rikshaw for around RS 400-600 (up-down) Things to do:- there are various water rides, starting from speed boat to paddle boats, even there is a 8km long ride to a place called magarkund(crocodile habitat) but that ride is little expensive. They provide you proper life jackets. There are some local fishermen they also offer you a boat ride at a very cheap rate but they don't have any life jacket. Foods:- there is a nice restaurant, from snack to meal you will get everything (pure veg)
