HIKING SAFARIS in jim corbett
Corbett tiger reserve has large tracts of adjoining river & forest area that extend to the higher reaches of the outer himalayas. Altitude varies from 400 mts to 2100mts. Grasslands and tropical forest dominated by the sal (shorea robusta) trees go up to the higher mountains of oak and rhododendron with a breath taking view of the icy himalayan peaks. Hikes and trekking in these forests with a help of an expert tracker is perhaps the best way to 'feel the forest'. One indeed gets an insight and minute observations are possible.
BIRD WATCHING in jim corbett
Corbett is famous for the richness and diversity of its wildlife which included over 50 species of mammals and over 580 species of birds. The national park is an important refuge for the tiger, Indian elephant, wild dog, leopard cat, Indian pangolin and hog deer. All of which were once common throughout the terai of Uttar Pradesh but are now rarely seen outside the park. The terai (moist land) is a belt of marshy jungle and grassland stretching between the foothills of the Himalayas and the Indian plains, a large part of the terai is in Nepal. Corbett's avifauna is particularly interesting because of the overlap between the plains and high altitudes. The Ramganga river is a source of attraction to many winter migrant birds.
A number of high altitude birds also visit the national park during winter. With altitudes at Corbett ranging from 400 meters to 1,200 meters above sea level, there is a rich variety of habitats. Nearly 73% of the park is covered by dense moist deciduous forest with a predominance of sal trees, accompanied by haldu, pipal, rohini and mango trees. While 10% of the core area is composed of grasslands in the valleys, which offer visitors a better view of Corbett's wildlife.

FISHING & ANGLING in Jim corbett
The ramganga river and kosi rivers are the main lifeline of the corbett tiger reserve and supports a wide array of aquatic life forms within. Common otters (lutralutra monticola), mugger (crocodylus palustris), the fish eating gharial (gavialis gangeticus) and fishing eagles are just a few, who benefit from this perennial source. Famed for the 'mighty mahseer' the fighting fish, it is one of the finest rivers of north india for anglers. The largest mahseer (barbustor) catch in the last few years weighed 65lbs. Other species on this river include the goonch, malee (wallago attu), rohu and trout in certain sections.

An elephant safari into the grasslands and jungles searching for tiger or a herd of wild elephants is the highlight of any visit to Jim Corbett national park.

Numbers are increasing with the release of 250 young gharial reared in captivity between 1982 and 1994, and now that the muggar population breeds in the Ramganga reservoir. A 1997 census counted 283 gharials and 301 muggars at Corbett

Books Publised on Sir Jim Corbett
Man-Eaters of Kumaon
Book Description
Jim Corbett's book on man-eating tigers are not only established classics, but also almost in a separate literary category by themselves. Man-Eaters of Kumaon is the best known of Colonel Corbett's books, and contains ten fascinating stories of tracking and shooting man-eaters in the Indian Himalaya during the early years of this century. The stories also contain incidental information on flora, fauna and village life, making this book altogether delightful reading.
The Temple Tiger and Man-Eaters of Kumaon
ANNOTATION : The Last of Colonel Jim Corbetts' books on his unique and enthralling hunting experiences in India.
Book Description
This is the last of Jim Corbett's books on his unique and thrilling hunting experiences in the Indian Himalaya. Concluding the narrative begun in the famous Man-Eaters of Kumaon, Colonel Corbett here recounts five stories of skill and endurance. As always, he writes with an acute awareness of all the jungle sights and sounds, his words charged with a great love of the human beings in the villages that lay within his hunting terrain. Together with the modesty, calm and precision of his prose, these qualities make these stories very much a part of the classic Corbett corpus.
Jungle Lore
Book Description
Jungle Lore is the closest Jim Corbett ever came to an autobiography. It is in this book that one sees the real soul of the man and his love affair with the people, jungle and animals of the Kumaon hills. Much of Corbett's childhood is here - his first forays with catapult and gun and his first adventures. Also present is his obsession with the ways of the jungle, about which he was continually striving to learn more. But at the heart of the book is a cry for sensitivity to the fragility of nature and a lament to mankind's divorce from his environment. In this concern, many years before the issues of conservation became widely understood, Corbett was well ahead of his time. Today the import of Jungle Lore is as vibrant as it ever was, the morality even more seminal.
The Man-Eating Leopard of Rudraprayag
by: Jim Corbett
Book Description
Most of Jim Corbett's books contain collections of stories that recount adventures tracking and shooting man-eaters in the Indian Himalaya. This volume, however, consists of a single story, often considered the most exciting of all Corbett's jungle tales. He gives a carefully-detailed account of a notorious leopard that terrorized life in the hills of the colonial United Provinces. This story represents Corbett's most sustained and unique effort.
