Named
after Jim Corbett, the legendary hunter naturalist, Corbett national park was
originally established in 1936, as Hailey National Park. It was later named
Ramganga National park, before getting its present name in 1967. This is India’s first National Park and one of her finest wildlife sanctuaries. The park stretches over an area of 1300 sq. km (503 sq miles) in the Himalayan foothills with open grassland, sal and riverine forest and the beautiful life-giving Ramganga River that flows through almost its entire length.
