GET TO KNOW THE FOREST

About Sitabani Zone.

Birdwatching · Woodland · Forest heritage

Sitabani is a forest safari area near Ramnagar, outside Corbett Tiger Reserve. Uttarakhand Tourism highlights its dense woodland, birdwatching and connections with local Ramayana traditions. It offers a gentler way to explore the wider Corbett region’s natural and cultural landscape.

Enjoy the forest scenery and take time to listen. A safari here is organised under separate forest permissions, rather than a Corbett Tiger Reserve zone permit. Any temple or heritage stop needs to fit the authorised route and local access rules for your visit.
