Visiting Jim Corbett


Getting there:

Drive or take a train or a bus
As you reach RamNagar while coming in from Moradabad, you will come to a T junction – the right fork goes along the Kosi river, towards Ranikhet and the left fork takes you towards Sawaldey Village and the Khara Gate of Corbett Park and is also known as Dhela Road. Turn left and go down about 10km to Sawaldey Village There is a 1.5km narrow mud and pebbled track to reach Mapple Leisure Resort. We would recommend coming from Delhi by the overnight train - Ranikhet express - departure 1040pm from Delhi Junction and arrival Ramnagar at 5am. If you have planned well and got things organised for your jungle visit by your hotel or friends etc - we would ideally suggest that you go on a jungle visit straight from the station - as that starts at 6am, and then post that - freshen up and come to Mapple for the expo and race packet pick up.
Book accommodation and jungle trips early to avoid disappointment, Decide now - this is Corbett's peak season for visitors. 

There are several staying options in Corbett but you need to book now as this is a long and busy weekend Listed below are some options that can be checked out on the internet and you can call the places directly for your bookings and info on pick up and drop from Ramnagar station, transfers to the Gala dinner at Mapple Resort, expo & the race at Sawaldey Village, safari's & more.
