Activities at Tiger Camp are organised by our own guides and naturalists. You may organise your own itinerary, you have the following options.

Wildlife viewing in Jeeps :
Safaris into the jungle are conducted by professional wildlife guides in open jeeps to Bijrani range forest, Jhirna, Lohachaur. The duration of safari is about three to four hours and is conducted early morning or in the afternoon till sunset. The standard procedure of viewing wildlife or tiger tracking is in open jeeps. Each jeep can seat upto four persons comfortably. Besides the visitors, the jeep has an expert driver and a nature guide.

The best time for tiger tracking and birding is either early morning or late evening. One can book jeep safaris in advance while booking the accommodation.

Elephant ride :
Riding the elephant is the best mode of moving through the dense forest and rugged terrain of Corbett National Park. The ride can be very rewarding for wildlife enthusiasts and birders.

If one opts for an overnight stay at the forest rest house, the elephant ride is provided within the package. The elephant ride is sometimes rewarding when used for tiger tracking in the grasslands.

Nature walks
Nature walks and short treks along the river Kosi or Ramganga.

Angling
We exercise the "catch and release system". Though boasting an abundance of fish species, it is for the mighty "Mahseer", a large fighting fish that India is best known for, in the fishing world.

Mahseer fishing tours are conducted on the Ramganga river in the periphery of Corbett National Park and higher reaches of the river. Fly-fishing and spinning the rivers offers great pleasure to the sportsman, who is called upon to pit his skill to outwit the mighty Mahseer.

Angling here is subject to permissions available from the forest department on advance notice.

Anglers will have to bring their own equipment. Local fishing guides, who are highly experienced are deputed with anglers. We provide transportation, camp equipment, packed or fresh meals and fishing gillees. One can use a few good pools in river Ramganga for Mahseer fishing. One can take morning and afternoon walks by the river for angling. The anglers are required to carry their own fishing gear.
