Jim Corbett Safari at Dhela Zone

The Dhela Zone is a relatively new and emerging safari zone within Jim Corbett National Park, situated near the southern region of the park close to Kotdwar in Uttarakhand. Known for its rich biodiversity and serene landscapes, Dhela offers a fresh and less crowded alternative for wildlife enthusiasts seeking a more tranquil experience in the wilderness.
The zone covers a variety of habitats, including dense sal forests, riverine areas, and open grasslands, which support a wide range of flora and fauna. Dhela is home to several iconic species of Jim Corbett, such as elephants, leopards, sambar deer, chital, wild boar, and sloth bears. Although tiger sightings here are relatively rare, the zone's lush environment and diversity make it a great spot for nature lovers and bird watchers alike.
Dhela's terrain is moderately rugged, providing excellent opportunities for jeep safaris that showcase the raw and undisturbed beauty of the park's southern buffer zone. The zone's proximity to Kotdwar makes it accessible while still offering a deep jungle experience far from the crowds common in other parts of Corbett.
Jeep safaris in Dhela are conducted during the morning and evening hours, with professional guides to enhance your wildlife viewing experience. Advance booking is recommended to secure permits, especially during peak seasons.
For travelers seeking an offbeat and peaceful safari experience surrounded by rich biodiversity, the Dhela Zone of Jim Corbett National Park is an excellent destination to explore the untamed beauty of India's first national park.
