Corbett

Located in the Nainital district, Corbett National Park is a protected area for Bengal tigers of India. Corbett National Park was established in 1936. It is home to around 580 bird species, 50 species of trees, and 25 species of reptiles, along with 50 species of animals. Named after the hunter James E Corbett, who played a key role in the establishment of the reserve, Corbett National Park is the oldest national park in India.

From November 15 to June 15 is the best time to visit Corbett National Park. The park remains closed for most of the months around the year, as its roads are washed out during monsoons. However, the buffer zones Sitabani and Jhirna remains open throughout the year.

Jeep safaris are conducted in the morning and afternoon at 6 am and 2.30. Tourists and adventure enthusiasts can also try out various budget packages from Trip Night for a trip to Corbett. Accommodation options in Corbett range from budget hotels and jungle resorts to adventure camps. Most of these hotels also offer transfers from railway and bus stations along with sightseeing.
