Best Time

Winter: October to February brings a cool and enjoyable climate, making it a prime season for observing wildlife. The likelihood of encountering animals, including majestic tigers, increases as they venture out to soak up the sun’s warmth during the day. Although, it’s wise to pack warm attire for the brisk early mornings and evenings.

Spring: (March to May) ushers in a renewed vitality, with temperatures gradually rising, making it an ideal time for bird enthusiasts to observe and appreciate the diverse avian species that inhabit the park. Additionally, the verdant greenery of the park is at its peak, creating a picturesque landscape that invites exploration. Although the sun’s intensity can be felt during the day, it’s crucial to prioritize hydration and protect one’s skin with sunscreen to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

Monsoon: During the monsoon season from (June to September), Corbett National Park receives significant rainfall, causing road closures and making some areas inaccessible. Despite these challenges, this period showcases vibrant greenery and revitalized rivers, providing a distinctive opportunity for nature enthusiasts. Spotting wildlife may be harder because of the thick vegetation.

Note: The ideal time to travel to Corbett varies depending on what you enjoy. If your main focus is seeing wildlife, it’s suggested to go during the winter months. However, if you prefer vibrant green scenery and are okay with some rain, visiting in the monsoon season can provide a distinct and interesting experience.

  To walk on slippery ice and fall umpteen times, to be hungry and thirsty for hours, to experience sub-zero temperature etc. was not easy. While the trek may not be easy, the experience was exquisite and virgin. The thrill of reaching the peak pumped me up and its going to keep me energized / spirited. It happened only because of Trek up India (Our Team leaders Manindar Sing and Neelesh Bro.... Thank you Trek up India).
