A Thrilling Safari Adventure in Corbett National Park
Imagine your jeep sweeping through Sal and Mango tree lined forests as you and your guide make your way inside the park. Your hearts are alive with the hope of witnessing the majesty of an elusive Bengal Tiger. Your jeep traverses a landscape ranging from hills to grasslands and on roads overlooking riverine belts and marshy depressions and lakes. The morning light sneaks in slowly on a crisp winter morning. The water in the lake shimmers as sunlight dances on it. Colorful fields of wild flowers, cacophony of birds and roars of tigers await you.
Wildlife Diversity in Corbett National Park
Corbett National Park is famous for the richness and diversity of its wildlife which includes over 50 species of mammals and over 580 species of birds. Some selected zones in the 521 sq. km expanse of the park are open to tourists for morning and evening jeep safaris – Dhikala, Bijrani, Jhirna, Domunda and Sonanadi. And what splendid treasures these zones hold!
Encounter Mighty Predators on a Jeep Safari
The jungle safaris conducted through jeeps and canters allow you to witness the mighty predators of the jungle. On the banks of the Ramganga Reservoir, one may easily spot wild animals like elephants and tigers indulging in a drink. You may catch a leopard posing on a tree, just waiting for you to click the stately beast with your camera. Or you may choose to get mesmerized by the beautiful peacocks with their feathers wide open and dancing in all their glory. Or you may see crocodiles and gharials sunbathing along the shores as they raise their heads from a lazy slumber. The park also hosts deer, mongoose, bears, otters and numerous other native species. It is a birdwatcher’s haven and inhabits parakeets, crested serpent eagle, bee-eaters, tawny fish owl, red jungle fowl and several other migratory and local birds.
Relax and Unwind with Resort Activities
Post morning safari, you could spend a lazy afternoon relaxing by the pool or pamper yourself in the spa or just take a nap before your evening safari. There are myriad leisure activities to cater to your every whim or fancy. Play volley ball in the pool or indulge in a board game or carom or table tennis and other indoor activities on offer in your resort with your family and friends to up the entertainment ante. For wildlife aficionados, there are nature walks and bird watching sessions. Pay a visit to one of the organic gardens. Or learn the history of the park as you watch a documentary about the park and Jim Corbett, himself. You will surely cherish these moments which bring you closer to each other.
Evening Fun and Entertainment at the Resort
In evening, what could be a better end to a rewarding day than to rest in the luxury of your resort and sip a beer with your friends as the sun sets. In late evening, the bonfires sparkle enough to rival the flame of the forest flowers native to Corbett. The jamming sessions in the night beat the best clubs in the cities. Get ready to show your dance moves as the DJ plays your favorite tunes under the canopy of stars!
Stay Overnight in the Jungle for a Unique Experience
Corbett is one of the few national parks in India which allow you to stay overnight in one of the camps in the jungle. You can witness the magic of shy deer gazing at your window, wild squirrel running everywhere and the trumpets of the elephants when you wake up next morning. Or if you are lucky, you may encounter a tortoise on your way to breakfast like I did.
Engage in Outdoor Adventures and Cultural Experiences
