However, to organize yourself for the trip, it is essential to be familiar with the weather and climatic situation of the place.
Summer
The summer season begins from the month of March and ends till mid-June. With the temperature crossing the 40o C (mark most of the times), the days can be very hot during the month of May. The sweltering temperature of the sun becomes somewhat horrendous for the animals as well as the residents. Also, a hot wind simply known as loo, blows throughout the day, during summers. As a result wild animals can easily viewed beside water bodies.
Monsoon
The beginning of the monsoon is witnessed in mid-June, which ends up to October. The rain showers carry breathing space to the parching landscape from the burning heat. The climate becomes fairly pleasant with the drop in temperature. Though, most of the parts of Corbett national park is closed for the visitors throughout the rainy season as this is the mating season of most of the animals. To one side, the area is also horizontal to soil erosion and landslides which can prove to be risky. During monsoons, the moisture soars up to 98 percent, makes the weather very humid.
Winter
Starts from November to February, winters are ideal to discover the wildlife zones of the park. The park heartily welcomes all the tourists this time. The climate is temperate during this time of the year. The moisture level also falls down to about 57%. Animals are also effortlessly visible during this time as they come out to laze around in the sun. While the days are pleasant, the nights are quite cold. The night temperature can drop down to 5 o C. A cold wind known as 'dadu' blows in the region, throughout the night, lowering the temperature significantly.
