From the Streets of Bhiwani City to the Wild: The Dhela Ecotourism Zone Guide
Are you a nature lover in Bhiwani City looking for a new destination? Have you heard of Jim Corbett National Park but are worried about overcrowding in the famous zones?
It is time to turn your attention to the Dhela Ecotourism Zone.
Established recently in 2014, Dhela is the youngest star of the Corbett Tiger Reserve. For travelers coming from Bhiwani City, Dhela offers the perfect balance: it is untamed and beautiful, yet easily accessible.
At Corbett Online Booking, we have seen a massive increase in requests for Dhela from our clients in Bhiwani City, and for good reason. It is the ideal escape from the pollution of city life.
