WHEN TO GO

The pleasant atmosphere of the hillside region in Almora and Nainital are best enjoyed around October to November or March to June. One can revel in the wonders of the historic Corbett forest anytime between October to March. But April and May are the best months to catch a glimpse of the magnificent tigers. However, if you want to beat the heat, the snowy winters that take over from December to February are quite the spectacle.
