Durga Devi Safari Zone

The Durga Devi Safari Zone is one of the most scenic and lesser-explored regions of Jim Corbett National Park, located on the northeastern boundary near Ramnagar, Uttarakhand. Known for its hilly terrain, river streams, and dense forests, this zone offers a unique blend of adventure, tranquility, and natural beauty. It is especially popular among bird watchers and nature photographers due to its rich avian diversity.

About the Durga Devi Zone

The entry gate for this zone is situated about 28 km from Ramnagar. The landscape here is dominated by the Ramganga River and its tributaries, which add to the beauty and ecological richness of the region. The zone features a mix of Sal forests, bamboo clusters, and rocky hills, making it ideal for spotting a variety of wildlife species. Common sightings include Elephants, Deer, Wild Boars, Leopards, and, with some luck, the elusive Royal Bengal Tiger.

However, what truly sets the Durga Devi Zone apart is its incredible birdlife. It is home to several rare and migratory bird species, including the Grey-headed Eagle, Maroon Oriole, Long-tailed Broadbill, and Great Hornbill, making it a haven for birding enthusiasts.
