The Wild Escape is a peaceful homestay located near Corbett Heritage Village at Choti Haldwani, where Jim Corbett once lived. Surrounded by lush wilderness, it offers eco-friendly huts with stunning views of the mountains, farmlands, and forest. Guests can enjoy garden-fresh organic meals or cook their own in the hut’s kitchen. The property features 2 independent huts with attached facilities, a common dining room, meditation hut, fireplace. Activities include jungle safari, village walks, forest treks, bird watching, and star gazing, with treks to nearby Nainital, Corbett Fall, and Brahm Bhu Temple. The homestay provides a tranquil retreat for nature enthusiasts, inspired by the beauty Corbett himself once admired.
I’m a retired civil engineer with over 50 years of experience working on diverse projects across India and the Middle East. Alongside my professional journey, I have always been a nature lover, a travel enthusiast, and deeply passionate about designing spaces that nurture the soul. Drawing inspiration from Vedanta philosophy and the timeless teachings of Swami Vivekananda, I believe that true fulfillment comes from living in the present moment, embracing simplicity, and cultivating peace within. This philosophy guides me in creating eco-friendly, tranquil spaces that encourage people to slow down, reconnect with nature, and rediscover their inner selves. I envision these spaces as havens where guests can pause, reflect, and experience the joy found in life's little moments — a gentle reminder that happiness often resides in the simplest of things. Whether through sustainable design or fostering an atmosphere of calm, I aim to craft environments where individuals can find balance, peace, and a deeper connection to both nature and their own being.
In his book *My India*, Jim Corbett describes his beloved evening walks along the far side of the Boar Bridge, the road to Kotabagh, and the forest road to Ramnagar. The path from the homestay to Boar Bridge, just 2 km away, is easily accessible by car, and cycling along this scenic route is also a great way to explore the area. **Corbett Gram Vikas Samiti (CGVS)** The Corbett Gram Vikas Samiti (CGVS) is a registered non-governmental organization in Choti Haldwani, founded by the local community in 2003 to honor Jim Corbett's vision and principles. The organization offers a range of activities, including safaris, guided tours of the Nainital district’s lakes, jungle walks through the neighboring Kotabagh forests (which border Corbett National Park), and nature guide services. They also organize heritage walks, bird watching, and folk dance/music performances as part of their community-driven programs. **Recommended Treks and Walks:** - **Kaladhunghi to Nainital** via Kotabagh and Panghut (12 km on foot, followed by 13 km by jeep) - **Homestay to Corbett Fall** (5 km one way) - **Homestay to Brahm Bhu Temple** (5 km via forest trails)
