As of my last update in September 2021, there is no official safari zone called “Phato Safari Zone” in Jim Corbett National Park. The park is divided into several designated safari zones, each offering a unique wildlife experience. The commonly known safari zones in Corbett National Park are:
- Dhikala Zone
- Bijrani Zone
- Jhirna Zone
- Durga Devi Zone
- Dhela Zone
- Sitabani (Buffer Zone)
It’s possible that the name “Phato” may be a local term or an unofficial reference to a specific area within the park, but it is not an officially recognized safari zone.
For a safari experience in Jim Corbett National Park, you can choose from the above-listed safari zones, each with its own charm and wildlife sightings. To visit any of these zones, you need to obtain the appropriate permits through the official website of the Corbett Tiger Reserve or through authorized tour operators.
Since information may change or be updated over time, I recommend checking the official website of the Corbett Tiger Reserve or contacting the park authorities directly for the most current and accurate information on safari zones and bookings.
