Jim Corbett: what to expect

Jim Corbett National Park is India's oldest national park, and it is centred on the Ramganga river valley. It is known for tigers, elephants and a long list of birds, and for its mix of forest, grassland and river.

Seeing a tiger is never guaranteed, and a good Corbett trip is built around the pleasure of the forest as much as the sightings.

Who should visit Jim Corbett

  • Wildlife and birdwatching enthusiasts
  • Families on a weekend from Delhi
  • Photographers who accept uncertainty
