Jim Corbett National Park, set in the beautiful foothills of Uttarakhand, is one of India’s most popular wildlife destinations, attracting nature lovers, photographers, and adventure seekers alike. A wide range of Jim Corbett tour packages offer the perfect blend of exciting jungle safaris, comfortable stays, and memorable wilderness experiences—making it ideal for weekend trips, romantic getaways, and family vacations.
Most packages include Jeep or Canter safaris across famous zones like Dhikala, Bijrani, Jhirna, Dhela, and Garjiya, led by expert naturalist guides who help spot wildlife such as elephants, deer, leopards, and sometimes the Royal Bengal Tiger. Accommodation options range from eco-lodges to luxury resorts, while activities like nature walks, birdwatching, trekking, riverside relaxation, and yoga add depth to the overall Corbett experience.
A Legacy of Conservation Established in 1936 as Hailey National Park, Jim Corbett has the distinction of being India's oldest national park and the birthplace of the prestigious 'Project Tiger' initiative. Spanning over 520 square kilometers of core area, the park is a perfect blend of hills, riverine belts, marshy depressions, and vast grasslands (known locally as 'Chaurs'). It is named after the legendary hunter-turned-conservationist Jim Corbett, who played a key role in its establishment and the protection of its wildlife.
The Lifeline of the Jungle The park's beauty is magnified by the Ramganga River, which flows through the heart of the reserve. This river is the lifeline of the forest, attracting herds of elephants, thirsty deer, and the majestic tiger to its banks, especially during the summer months. The Kosi River, flowing along the park's boundary, offers picturesque views and is famous for the Mahseer fish, making the region a paradise for nature lovers and anglers alike.

Corbett National Park, set against the foothills of Uttarakhand, is not just a wildlife destination but a living forest with its own rhythm, stories, and seasons. Thoughtfully designed Corbett tour packages open the door to experiencing this wilderness in its most authentic form.
Most tour packages revolve around jungle safaris through renowned zones such as Dhikala, Bijrani, Jhirna, Dhela, Garjiya, and Durga Devi. These safaris offer opportunities to observe elephants, deer, wild boar, leopards, and, if fortune favors, the Royal Bengal Tiger.
Beyond safaris, stays range from eco-lodges to luxury jungle resorts designed to blend seamlessly with the forest. Dawn birdcalls, rivers like the Kosi, and cool forest air define the experience. Many itineraries also include nature walks, birdwatching, local cultural evenings, and light adventure activities—creating a journey that connects travelers deeply with the forest while respecting its wild spirit.
