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.
