A visit to the Corbett National park is only a two day affair, provided you are not planning to go for excursions, which are, if not more, as exciting and enchanting as the jeep safari in the Corbett National park.
There are so many other places to be seen around the Corbett National park that one is tempted to increase the stay duration at Corbett resorts by another two days at least. Hence, if you’re planning a four-five days trip to Corbett, here are the places you definitely need to visit.
1. The Sitabani Ashram: It is believed that this is the place where Sita stayed during her exile and raised her sons Luv and Kush. It is located at a very scenic spot and is definitely a contrast to one’s luxurious resort in Corbett. The Sitabani temple has a white stone statue of Sita without Rama, holding her sons.
2. The Corbett Museum: Located around 32 kms from Ramnagar, on Nainital road, the museum has things associated with the man, Jim Corbett himself. This place is known as Kaladungi. En-route to Kaladungi are Corbett Falls, which is an excellent picnic spot.
3. The Garjia Temple: On way to Dhikala, about 3 kms from the Corbett wilds, there’s a huge rock emerging out of the river Kosi and on top is situated the Garjia Devi temple. A place for worshipping, it also gives one a mesmerizing view of river Kosi. A large fair is also held here on Kartik Poornima.
4. Tumaria Dam: It’s around forty-five minutes drive from Corbett. The trip will prove educational for children as well as adults as there are a lot of migratory birds that flock to this place.
