Rajaji National Park

Rajaji National Park is an National Park and Tiger Reserve on the outskirts of Shivaliks, in the foothills of the Himalayas. It is spread across the area of 820 Sq km in three districts of Uttarakhand- Haridwar, Dehradun and Pauri Garhwal. The dense green forests of Rajaji National Park are home to vivacious wildlife right from fierce tigers, leopards and other countless species of plants, birds and  mammals. One can also sight the uncommon Himalayan Black Bear in the higher reaches of the park. It is well connected by road and Jolly Grant Airport is just 44 km away.

Paradise for nature and wildlife lovers, it is an elegant colonial style bungalow located right on the banks of the Peeli river in the foothills of the Shivaliks at the edge of Rajaji National park. It is set in a picturesque rural landscape, where you wake up facing the mountains, surrounded by thick forests under an endless blue sky. You can spot animals that come to drink water at the river, from the machaan at the homestay.
It has four bedrooms including one suite, each one facing stretches of green and the gurgling river.
