About Jhirna Zone

Discover serenity among the ancient trees at Jhirna Forest Rest House

Jhirna zone is one of the 8 zones of Jim Corbett. This zone is in the southern part of the Jungle and you can stay here for the night. Previously this zone was a village and then this village was relocated to somewhere else and this zone was made a tiger reserve area.

For reservation, this area was developed into a large grassland (known as chaur) and densely grown forest area. During your Jhirna night stay, you can find prey here like nilgai, sambhar, chital, and wild boar and because of these prey, tigers like to visit this zone a lot. There are high chances of tiger sightings in this zone. You can also spot other animals like wild elephants, deer, and sloth bears, which makes this zone a favorite place among tourists.

Not only animals, but you can also spot many birds here because this zone has many river channels with warm stream beds and cliff edges, which is a meeting point for birds. Birdwatchers should spend their time here. You can stay here at night in the Jhirna Forest Rest House. Now you must be thinking about the timings of safari in this zone, so let me tell you this zone is open throughout the year. You can make a Jhirna Night Stay Booking from 15th Nov to the 14th of June. But you can enjoy a Jhirna gypsy safari any time of the year.
