Corbett National Park

Located in the foothills of the Himalayas in Uttranchal (India), Corbett National Park was the 1st national park to be set up in India. It was established in 1935 and christened as Hailey National Park. Sir William Malcolm Hailey was the governor of the provinces under which the park area fell. He was a passionate environmentalist who worked selfless to get the park going on to its illustrious journey.

In the year 1957 the park was renamed as Corbett National Park in memory of the late Jim Corbett. The life of Jim Corbett can be aptly described as of a hunter who turned into one of the best conservationist and protector of the wild. The covered area is 1200 sq Km which comprises of hill areas, ravines, plateaus, marshlands and the lower areas are densely forested. The glorious Ramganga River flows all the way through the park, providing much needed substance to the wild animals.
