Jim Corbett guides

Jim Corbett National Park is entered from Ramnagar, west of Haldwani along the foothills, and Dhikala and most of the safari zones are reached from there. These guides explain how the zones and gates work, how jeep and canter safaris are booked and which permits go first, what the park is like in December and January, and when it makes sense to sleep in Haldwani instead.
