01 · Overview
About this experience
Corbett is India’s oldest national park, set up in 1936 in the foothills where the plains meet the Kumaon hills. Sal forest, open grassland called chaurs and the wide bed of the Ramganga river make it one of the best places in the country to see wild elephants, and one of the strongholds of the Bengal tiger.

Before you go
Good to know

- 02
Dhikala is open roughly mid-November to mid-June; Jhirna and Dhela are open all year.
- 03
Tiger sightings are never guaranteed. The forest is worth it either way.
- 04
Wear muted colours, carry a warm layer for winter mornings and keep voices low in the park.
- 05
Combine it with a stay at Hriday Bhoomi or Ekaant, near the park.
