About Jim Corbett Safari
Jim Corbett is India's oldest national park, set in the Himalayan foothills where the Ramganga river cuts through sal forest and grassland. Beyond tigers, it's elephants, deer, gharial and 600+ bird species.
We match your zone — Dhikala, Bijrani, Jhirna or Dhela — to your dates and arrange riverside stays so you're close to the gate at dawn.
