There are a plenty of things to do around the brook if you decide to stretch
your legs a bit. You can go for nature walks on the Sitabani Road. Trek into the
Reserve Forest and visit the local village to share the simple joys of the
native folk. Walk towards the Kosi riverside with a packed picnic lunch or just
dip your feet in the brook by the Camp. The swaying hammocks, jhoolas and
the sun kissed lawns at the camp resort will further add to your unwinding
experience. Play a game of cricket, practice basketball or try your hand at
badminton racquets. Enjoy the support from the spectators as they cheer from the
deck while you play volleyball, the beach style on the riverbed.

About Jim Corbett National Park
The park was set up in 1936 as India's first national park and possibly the
finest. It spans across some 1318.54 square km at an altitude of 400 to 1210
meters about the foothills of the western Himalayas in the districts of Nainital
and Pauri Garhwal in the state of Uttaranchal.
One can find a variety of habitats of enchanting beauty including 50 mammals,
577 birds and at least 25 reptiles. The river teems with mahseer, gharial,
mugger and flocks of cormorants.
The Safari is the main stay of the Corbett experience.
