A World Away from Kotdwar: Discovering Jim Corbett National Park
If you are living in Kotdwar, your mornings probably start with traffic noise. But just a journey away, there is a place where mornings start with the chirping of birds and the fog rolling over the mountains.
That place is Jim Corbett National Park.
For tourists from Kotdwar, Corbett isn't just a destination; it is a portal to a different world. It is a place where emails fade away, and senses come alive.
At Corbett Online Booking, we have helped thousands of families and adventure seekers from Kotdwar discover the magic of this forest. Here is what you need to know about your next adventure.
Why Corbett is the Perfect Antidote for Kotdwar Life
- The Legacy: Did you know you are visiting a legend? Established in 1936, this is India's First National Park. It holds a unique place in history compared to any other park you might visit from Kotdwar.
- The Wildlife: In Kotdwar, you might see pigeons or stray cats. In Corbett, you share the land with the Royal Bengal Tiger, Asiatic Elephants, Leopards, Sloth Bears, and over 600 bird species. It is a breathing documentary.

The Lay of the Land: Understanding the Park
For a visitor from Kotdwar, the park can seem confusing. It is divided into Zones. Think of them as different districts of the forest.
- Dhikala: The Premium area. Famous for vast grasslands and the Ramganga River. This is where the National Geographic documentaries are filmed.
- Bijrani: The Action zone. Known for deep forests and high tiger sightings.
- Jhirna & Dhela: The Year-Round zones. Even if you plan a spontaneous trip from Kotdwar in the rain, these gates are open.
- Durga Devi: The Hill zone. Perfect for those who love rivers and angling (fishing).
The Journey: From Kotdwar to the Jungle
