Dhela Zone

Experience the most famous safari zone of Corbett.

About Dhela Zone

Dhela is a relatively new zone that offers a wilder, less crowded alternative with thick forests, grass patches and water bodies.
It has quickly gained a reputation for surprise sightings and a strong sense of being deep inside nature.

Flora & Fauna

Dhela’s mix of Sal, mixed forest, grassland and wetlands attracts elephants, deer, wild boar and a variety of smaller mammals and birds.
Tigers move through this area, and fresh signs are often seen along the tracks and near water.

Safari Experience

Dhela safaris feel exploratory, with quiet tracks, bird calls and frequent stopping to scan clearings and waterholes.
Our guides use their knowledge of recent movements and conditions to decide which loops to emphasise on each drive.

Stay Options

We select resorts near the Dhela access road that make your morning and evening gate runs easy.
You can combine Dhela with other zones during your stay for a varied Corbett experience.

Best Time to Visit

Dhela works well throughout the open period, with winter bringing crisp, cool drives and summer concentrating wildlife near remaining water.
Birders and photographers will find plenty of subjects in both seasons.

How to Reach

The Dhela gate is reached via Ramnagar and local roads, with a comfortable drive from most safari resorts.
We manage all permit and guide arrangements and brief you on reporting times before each drive.
