Corbett/ Nainital
Hello everyone, I plan to drive from Delhi to Corbett/ Nainital for 4d/3n with family.
Can someone suggest a few good hotels along the way. I plan to keep moving and not make a base anywhere. Secondly would Corbett be open in Sept end? Any tips for us? Thanks. |

As per official website http://www.corbettnationalpark.in/ When to Visit Corbett remains open to tourists from 15th November to 15th June. The main reason for closure of the Park during the rest of the year is that during the monsoons most of the roads get washed away. Repair work starts after the rains end and it is only by November that roads are back in motorable condition. |

Only the Jhirna Buffer Zone is open during the monsoon.

But there are almost zero chances of tiger sitings in buffer zone...it's grassland and there are villages in it...
