The Phato eco-tourism zone, inaugurated on January 2nd, 2022 by the honorable Prime Minister of India is the most underrated gem on earth. With beautiful eucalyptus forests, green and red water hole, diverse species of flora and fauna, and a tree-house in its campus, it’s the most beautiful forest of Jim Corbett.
If the word “underrated” had a face, it would be the scenic highlights of Phato Eco-tourism zone lying in the Tera-West division. Tourists visiting the Phato Zone will find it just 20-25km from Corbett City, Ramnagar. Along the journey, visitors can marvel at the Tumdiya Dam, with plans for boating facilities in the future, sightings of a huge venue of vultures and immense eucalyptus trees. The dense greenery and serene environment of the zone make every jeep safari an unforgettable adventure.
What else does a person want?
The ruby like pink waterhole, the emerald like green water hole, absolute chances of tiger sighting, eucalyptus forest, blissful campus with banyan tree feeling like a movie set, tree house and beautiful cottages to stay accompanied with the vintage sights of milkmen’s sheds better and immense cows in the midway.
All these things are availed to you by just this small corner- THE PHATO ZONE.
