Jim Corbett National Park, located in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand, is India's oldest national park, established in 1936 as Hailey National Park. It is best known as a prime habitat for the Bengal tiger and was the first reserve to come under Project Tiger in 1973, drawing wildlife enthusiasts and photographers from around the world. The park spans over 1,300 square kilometres of diverse terrain — from dense sal forests and grasslands to the Ramganga reservoir — and is also home to elephants, leopards, gharials, and hundreds of bird species. Travellers visit for jeep safaris through zones like Dhikala and Bijrani, nature walks, and the broader experience of the Kumaon foothills of the Himalayas.
