Jim Corbett National Park is closed down for monsoon season, Uttarakhand

Jim Corbett National Park, Uttarakhand has been closed down for tourists for monsoon season, as roads become unsafe and unusable for motor-vehicles.

“During the monsoon season…many rivers of our forests will pass through the main road. When it rains, all the roads are damaged. They are not usable for the tourists’ vehicles. So, this is the reason, we close down the park during the rainy season,” said a park warden.

The Park areas open for night visits have also been closed since June, 15, and will reopen on Nov 15, whereas the areas for daytime safaris has also shut down and will reopen on Oct 15.
