BEST TIME TO VISIT
Summer: Jim Corbett situated in Uttarakhand experiences three main seasons which are the Summer, Winter and Monsoon season. Summers in Uttarakhand begins in the month of March and last till May. Summers here exceed till 40-degrees, but because of the greenery in the National Park, the place still manages to remain fresh and fairly cool throughout. The humidity is slightly low, which allows a lot of tourists to visit the place during Summers. This is also one of the best times to spot mammals near water bodies since all five zones are open during this season, you're more likely to see animals more. Other activities that one might enjoy are river rafting, jeep safaris, nature walks and angling which are popular sports activities in summer.
Monsoon: Then is the Monsoon season which begins in the month of June and ends in the month of August. This time comes under heavy monsoon belt, which marks high rainfall. Temperatures here drop between 25 to 35-degrees and humidity increases drastically. The jungle looks very green, verdant and rejuvenated with creepers and climbers covering the forest floor. Monsoon is also the mating season for most mammals and birds, so you can hope to hear the exotic mating calls of many birds and animals. If you’re among people seeking adventure and have a keen interest in exploration, Jim Corbett National Park is the best place to be in the monsoon.
Winter: Then is the Winter season beginning in the month of October and lasting till February. This is the busiest tourist season in Jim Corbett National Park. The monsoon showers leave the park refreshed and rejuvenated with a slight chill in the air, and the whole region gets a new lease of life. During November, all the zones of the park are open for tourists and you can spot the maximum number of birds and animals during this time as well. The weather is an absolute delight with temperatures dropping between 10 degrees to 20 degrees during the day and at night, the temperature goes down to as low as 5 degrees. This is also the time when you’re most likely to spot the maximum number of Royal Bengal tigers, as they love soaking up the sun in the afternoons. This is absolutely the perfect time for Wildlife photographers, as they can hope to catch animals in action, striking the most magnificent poses. Rafting, safari rides, nature walks, and trekking are all allowed in the winter making it even better than summers to pay a visit.
