Why Jim Corbett is the Jewel of Uttarakhand

Jim Corbett isn’t just India’s oldest national park. It’s a vibrant slice of Himalayan wilderness—a place where you might spot a tiger in the morning and sit beside a silent, star-lit river by night. It’s a region that has long attracted wildlife lovers, adventure seekers, and city-weary souls looking to reconnect with something real.



What Makes Corbett So Special?

  • Untouched wilderness: It’s home to over 600 species of birds, elephants, leopards, and of course, the elusive Bengal tiger.

  • A perfect escape for families: Jungle safaris, nature trails, and river activities make it exciting for all ages.

  • Easy access: Just 6-7 hours from Delhi, and even closer from nearby hill towns.
