The
lodge reminds one, of the famous African lodges. It
has a distinct outdoor atmosphere, right down to the
staff uniforms. The lodge has a typical jungle ambience
with its huge wooden rafters in a dome-shaped split
level mega-pagoda, which serves as a lounge with a cozy
fireplace, a fully-stocked bar and a dining hall. The
decor, the furniture, the artifacts, all capture the
tough life of the jungle so loved by the legendary Jim
Corbett. Its 24 twin bedrooms offer a panoramic view
of the Kosi river with the backdrop of the Kumaon hills.
Its lawns, set amidst a mango grove bring to life the
bonhomie of outdoor zest and zeal with 'Chota Pegs'
and small eats in the evening.

Infinity
Resorts is a strong believer in eco-tourism as not only
is it important to travel to remote areas and enjoy
and understand the biodiversity and cultural heritage
of the area, but also to retain the purity and beauty
of the wilderness.

The most significant event that has taken place in this
regard is the setting up of The Corbett Foundation.
It is a private trust which is engaged in eco-developmental
works in the buffer area with special emphasis on an
awareness programme. It is earnestly hoped that the
activities of the trust will further the cause of eco-tourism
and it will become a pioneer organisation to further
conservation efforts in and around the Cobett Tiger
Reserve, including the tiger.

Twenty four spacious twin-bedded rooms with adjoining
bathrooms and individual private balconies stand in
a grove of mango trees around a full sized swimming
pool. Terra-cotta tiles, local marble stone and slate
blend pleasingly in the main lodge building which is
arranged on several levels to maximize enjoyment of
the view. The circular lodge and dining area, complete
with a fully stocked bar and cosy fireplace, jut out
making it an intrinsic part of the river and hills around
it.
Other
facilities include indoor games, a conference hall with
state of the art equipment, Childrens Park and even
a medical center with resident doctors and an ambulance.

About
Corbett National Park, India
Corbett
National Park is the oldest national park of the Indian
subcontinent. It was established on 8th August, 1936
with an area of 323.75 sq. kms and was named after 'Jim
Corbett' in 1957, as homage to the deceased conservationist.
James
Edward Corbett, better known to the world as Jim Corbett,
was born at Nainital on 25 July 1875. In 1907, he killed
a man-eating tiger... one of the many man eaters he
was destined to kill. But Jim retained a 'compassion'
even for man-eaters, as he realised that they killed
humans only to appease the most primary instinct of
hunger because some disability or injury prevented them
from catching their normal prey. In many cases the disability
or injury was inflicted by humans. The Government had
granted him the ' freedom of the forests'. With his
great abilities he became the first naturalist in India
to start daylight photography of tigers in their natural
habitat. In 1929 he produced a number of excellent films
which he later gifted to the Natural History Museum
in London. On 19 April 1955, he passed to the 'Happy
Hunting Grounds' and was buried at Nyeri in the same
graveyard as Lord Baden Powell. The Corbett National
Park (map of the area) Corbett National park is famous
the world over as the 'Land of the trumpet, roar and
song'. In Corbett National Park apart from tigers some
of the other cats which can be seen are leopards, jungle
cats and leopard cats. Large herds of elephant are also
found near Ramganga. The Park has a spectacular bird
diversity. Over 500 species of resident and migratory
birds have been recorded here. Peacock, kaleej pheasant,
block partridge, pallas's fishing eagle, white collared
falconet, storkbilled kingfisher, wall creeper, brown
fish owl, brown eared and block bulbul and several species
of woodpeckers & parakeets ore some of the attractive
birds found within Corbett National Park. In 1966 an
additional area was added to Corbett National Park bringing
it to its present area of 520.82 sq. kms. Corbett Tiger
Reserve is spread over 1318.54 sq. kms. and includes
apart from Corbett National Park, additional areas of
Sonanadi Wildlife Sanctuary and Reserve Forest buffer
zone . Infinity Resorts... a beautiful and unique lodge...where
