History
Jim Corbett National Park, established in 1936 as Hailey National Park, was renamed in honor of the legendary hunter and conservationist, Jim Corbett. Corbett played a significant role in identifying and protecting the area's rich biodiversity. Initially, the park aimed to protect the endangered Bengal tiger and its habitat. Over the years, the park has expanded and evolved, becoming a crucial center for wildlife conservation and research. The Kotdwar entrance, while not the original entry point, has gained prominence as an alternative access route, offering a different perspective of the park's vast landscape. This entrance has helped distribute tourist traffic and reduce pressure on the more popular entry points. It continues to play a vital role in preserving the park's ecological integrity and promoting sustainable tourism.
