More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off an early flight in Delhi and leave the noise of Goa behind for a landscape that changes with every hour: emerald fields give way to the lower Himalaya’s rolling foothills and the first stands of sal and teak. By late afternoon the resort near Jim Corbett National Park feels less like a hotel and more like a staging ground—the riverbank calls, and tomorrow’s dawn promises a jeep engine and the suppressed impatience of a jungle waking up.
