Safari & Activities

The wild starts a short walk from your door.

Dhela Gate is one of the quieter entrances to Jim Corbett, which means fewer jeeps and better wildlife. We handle the paperwork so your trip is just the good part.

Jeep safari

Morning and afternoon jungle drives with experienced naturalists. Tigers, elephants, deer and hundreds of birds.

Nature walks

Guided walks along the forest edge and the Dhela riverbed at the slow pace the jungle deserves.

Birdwatching

Corbett is a birder's paradise. Bring binoculars or borrow ours and start before sunrise.

How safari booking works

Permits for Jim Corbett are limited and sell out in peak season, so book early. When you reserve a room, just tell us which zone and date you want and we will arrange the permit, the gypsy (open jeep) and a guide. Payment for the safari is separate from your room rate and set by the forest department.

Good to know

  • Carry a valid photo ID for every guest — it is required at the gate.
  • Morning safaris see the most movement; dress warm in winter.
  • Zones open and close seasonally; we will tell you what is running on your dates.
