Go Local

A visit to Corbett is incomplete without a safari to the park. One of the country’s oldest park, it is home to not just the royal Bengal tiger but also to large herds of elephants, deers, leopards, snakes and a rich avaian population. Although many people go with the intention of just seeing a tiger, this forest has a host of wonders that are equally mesmerizing. Seek out the jungle’s small joys, its sights, sounds, and smells, because these are what will make your trip truly memorable. Other than safaris, you can also go for nature walks and treks in the area surrounding the parks. Ask your manager to arrange a guided trek or nature walk for you.

Besides safaris, you can also sign for dam visits and village tours nearby. These might be extra chargeable, but they offer a unique insight into the local culture of the place. Contact the manager at the resort for more details.

V Tip
