This area has a healthy Tiger and wildife population and thus the chances of sighting are immense. Located on the eastern end of Corbett, Bijrani contains a wide variety of flora & fauna which includes Sal forests on the upper reaches and tropical moist, deciduous mixed forest in the valley and plain areas. The availability of water from perennial sources and also from man made water holes and the location of the extremely wide grasslands provide a strong prey base for the big cats and grazing for the herbivores.
Jhirna Tourism Zone is open throughout the year.
Jhirna Zone – located on the southern periphery of Corbett Tiger Reserve – 30 Jeeps are permitted every morning & evening and can be booked well in advance – the area consisted of many villages and was prime farming area – but being in close proximity to Corbett the crops were destroyed by wild animals – this made it one of the high man animal conflict zone for years. The Park authorities then managed to relocate these villages with its farming population to another area and the Jhirna zone was added to the Corbett Tiger Reserve. This particular area was transformed into grassland habitat which is excellent for bird watching but this also provides rich grazing for herbivores and wild Elephants. One can see abundant cheetal, sambhar and wild boar which makes this place attractive for Tiger sightings – there is also a good chance to see sloth bear and wild elephants which provide great sightings for the wild life enthusiasts.
