Corbett Tiger Reserve


A SANCTUARY OF WILDERNESS AND CONSERVATION

The Corbett Tiger Reserve is not just a tourist destination but a testament to
successful wildlife conservation. It stands as a shining example of how timely
and effective intervention can aid in preserving nature’s splendor for future
generations. Corbett Tiger Reserve (CTR), originally established as Hailey
National Park in 1936, is a jewel in the crown of India’s wildlife conservation
efforts. Located in the Nainital district of Uttarakhand, CTR is not only the
first national park in India, but also the first to come under the Project Tiger
initiative.Renamed in honor of Jim Corbett in 1956, a hunter-turned-naturalist
who played a crucial role in its establishment, the park is a living testament
to conservation success.



GEOGRAPHY

Covering 1288.31 sq.km., the reserve’s diverse landscape includes hills,
riverine area grasslands, and a large waterbody. It has an elevation range of
1,300 to 4,000 feet and features sub-Himalayan ecological characteristics.

FLORA & FAUNA

Home to 617 plant species, 50 mammal species, 580 bird species and 25 reptile
species, the park is a biodiversity hotspot. It is renowned for having the
world’s highest density of tigers.

ECOTOURISM

Corbett Tiger Reserve is a popular ecotourism destination, attracting nature
enthusiasts from around the globe. At the same time, an increase in tourist
activities presents ongoing challenges to the park’s management and its
ecological balance. While the park is a symbol of successful wildlife
conservation, rising anthropogenic pressures continue to pose a threat to its
fragile ecosystem.

CHALLENGES

Therefore, responsible and sustainable tourism is more critical than ever, as it
minimizes negative economic, environmental and social impacts; makes positive
contributions to the conservation of natural and cultural heritage, to the
maintenance of the world’s diversity and provides more enjoyable experiences for
tourists through more meaningful connections with nature and wildlife.
