Track Length: 24 Km, Straight

Habitat: Entering Beribara FRH, which lies within the original Rajaji Wild Sanctuary, transports visitors back to the elegance of the British colonial period. Once designated as an exclusive hunting zone for VIPs, this historic forest area still retains the essence of its regal heritage. Bordered by the rich Terai farmlands on the southern side, the terrain features ber trees, cheer pine, teak, rohini, and bushy scrub forests interwoven with lantana thickets, forming a wonderfully varied ecosystem. Nowadays, it has become widely known for exciting Leopard sightings, offering guests a delightful mix of historical charm and untamed nature.

Identity Proof Requirement – Every Indian and international visitor must carry a photocopy of their valid photo identification such as Voter ID, Aadhar Card, Driving License, or Passport.
Booking Form Details – When completing the reservation form, kindly provide the complete names, ages, and genders of all group members in the message text box.
Early Booking Advantage – Reserving your safari in advance allows us to manage arrangements more efficiently and ensure a smoother experience.
Jeep Seating Capacity – Each Gypsy can accommodate 1 to 6 individuals. Two children under 5 years of age (without separate seats) ride at no additional charge.
Tourism Zone Popularity – Chilla Zone is well-developed and attracts the highest number of visitors throughout the year. Motichur Zone sees fewer tourists than Chilla but still receives decent footfall; it is easily accessible from NH-72 and located right next to the highway. Ranipur Zone is the least frequented among all. However, wildlife sightings depend entirely on luck, and no zone guarantees a specific jungle experience.
Jhilmil Jheel Zone – A Unique Wetland – This marshy grassland sits near Rajaji National Park (an extension of the Rajaji Tiger Reserve), close to Haridwar. Covering 155 hectares (383 acres), it serves as a vital corridor for wildlife moving between protected areas. Jhilmil represents the last untouched example of ancient Terai marshland in Uttarakhand. From the well-placed watchtower, visitors can view a landscape that has remained unchanged for centuries. This low-lying area (240 meters or 800 feet altitude) is home to Uttarakhand's only surviving herd of Swamp Deer, also known as Barasingha (Cervus Duvaucelii).
Ghori Range – Rich Biodiversity – Located in the northeastern section of Rajaji, Ghori Range boasts excellent ecological diversity with a fine mixture of ancient sal trees, riverine forests, grasslands, and mixed deciduous woodlands. Several year-round perennial streams, including the Tedon, support a wide variety of mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects. The Tedon Valley is accessible via a Gypsy track that crosses numerous small water streams, making the journey adventurous. At the halfway point, visitors find the Vindhyavasini Temple; guests may hike approximately 300 meters uphill to reach it and enjoy a panoramic view of the range. A 30-minute break is provided here.
