Step back into time with meaningful indulgences of unspoiled natural landscapes. Stay in lodges reminiscent of Raj-era forest rest houses. Relish without guilt the farm-to-table produce transformed into delicacies using secret recipes of the Raj, hidden grains and pulses from the mountains of Kumaon, and country-style world cuisine. Over 30 years of birding and tracking experience in the Corbett jungles, cur...ated wildlife activities, and warm Kumaoni hospitality come together to produce an unmatched wilderness experience. Jim’s Jungle Retreat invites you to come “seek the tiger, find the jungle”.
