About Jim Corbett National Park
Jim Corbett National Park, located in Uttarakhand’s Nainital district, covers a core area of 520 sq. km, with a buffer zone extending the reserve to over 1,300 sq. km. Established in 1936 as Hailey National Park, it was renamed in honor of Jim Corbett—the legendary hunter-turned-conservationist whose books and campaigns helped shape early wildlife protection in India.

Corbett is significant as the first national park of India and the birthplace of Project Tiger (1973), which went on to become the world’s largest wildlife conservation program. The park continues to be a symbol of India’s conservation legacy.
The landscape is striking. Rolling Himalayan foothills merge into sal and teak forests, riverine belts, marshes, and grasslands. The Ramganga River meanders through the park, forming lakes and reservoirs that attract both mammals and migratory birds. Corbett’s zones each offer a unique safari flavor—Dhikala with its grassland meadows, Bijrani with dense forests, and Jhirna known for year-round accessibility.
Culturally, the region is closely tied to Kumaoni traditions, and the memory of Jim Corbett himself is ever-present through villages, museums, and stories that celebrate his role in protecting these forests.
Today, Corbett is not only a stronghold of Bengal tigers but also a living chapter of India’s conservation history, where every safari feels like stepping into the origins of wildlife protection.

Vegetation At Jim Corbett National Park
Corbett’s terrain lies at the crossroads of the Himalayan foothills and the Gangetic plains, giving it extraordinary ecological variety.

The dominant vegetation is sal forest, covering nearly 75% of the park. Sal is interspersed with haldu, rohini, and mango trees, creating a dense canopy. In the riverine belts, khair and sissoo thrive, forming corridors along streams and floodplains.
Corbett is also home to expansive grasslands, locally known as chaurs, which are critical grazing grounds for deer and wild elephants. These meadows, such as Dhikala Chaur, are among the most scenic landscapes in Indian reserves.
The Ramganga River and its tributaries support lush riparian vegetation and aquatic plants, sustaining crocodiles, gharials, and otters. Higher elevations transition into mixed deciduous forests and pine in certain patches.
Seasonal changes dramatically transform the vegetation. Monsoons drape Corbett in dense green, winters open the forest with crisp air, and summers reveal dry, golden expanses where wildlife gathers at shrinking rivers.
This mosaic of sal forests, grasslands, and riverine habitats makes Corbett one of the most biologically diverse parks in Asia.

Wildlife At Jim Corbett National Park
Corbett’s reputation rests on its healthy tiger population, but its wildlife goes far beyond the big cat. Tigers are often sighted in the Dhikala and Bijrani zones, particularly along riverbeds. Leopards inhabit the hillier tracts and are frequently observed in the buffer zones.

Wild elephants are a signature of Corbett. Large herds migrate seasonally across valleys and riverbanks, making elephant sightings almost as iconic as tiger encounters.
Other carnivores include dholes (wild dogs), jackals, and civets. Sloth bears forage in hilly tracts, while smaller mammals like yellow-throated martens and porcupines add to the diversity.
Herbivores are abundant. Spotted deer, sambar, and hog deer dominate the meadows, while barking deer and goral prefer the edges of forests and cliffs. Wild boar and langurs are common, providing prey for larger predators.
Reptiles include marsh crocodiles and gharials in the Ramganga, along with pythons and monitor lizards in the forests. This rich food web makes Corbett one of India’s most complete ecosystems.

The wetlands and riverbanks attract waterbirds such as great cormorants, ruddy shelducks, herons, storks, and kingfishers. Migratory species like bar-headed geese and common pochards enrich the winter months.
The sal and mixed forests are alive with calls of Himalayan woodpeckers, minivets, parakeets, and drongos. The park is also known for sightings of crested serpent eagles, changeable hawk-eagles, and Himalayan griffons.
Birdlife here is as varied as the terrain itself—rivers, meadows, and forests together create an ever-changing canvas of avian wonders.
The grasslands host peafowl, lapwings, and larks, while nocturnal safaris reveal owls and nightjars. Endangered species like the great hornbill and the Pallas’s fish eagle add further depth for birders.
