Corbett Wildlife Resorts
Infinity Resort
Infinity Resorts is situated in the Himalayan foothills on the banks of the
Kosi River. Situated in the Kumaon hills of Uttaranchal, it reflects a high
standard of jungle accommodation, which is unique in India.
The lodge reminds one, of the famous African lodges. It has a distinct outdoor
atmosphere, right down to the staff uniforms. The lodge has a typical jungle
ambience with its huge wooden rafters in a dome-shaped split level mega-pagoda,
which serves as a lounge with a cozy fireplace, a fully-stocked bar and a dining
hall. The decor, the furniture, the artifacts, all captures the tough life of
the jungle so loved by the legendary Jim Corbett. Its 24 twin bedrooms offer
a panoramic view of the Kosi River with the backdrop of the Kumaon hills. Its
lawns, set amidst a mango grove bring to life the bonhomie of outdoor zest and
zeal with 'Chota Pegs' and small eats in the evening.
Infinity Resorts is a strong believer in eco-tourism as not only is it important
to travel to remote areas and enjoy and understand the biodiversity and cultural
heritage of the area, but also to retain the purity and beauty of the wilderness.
The most significant event that has taken place in this regard is the setting
up of The Corbett Foundation. It is a private trust that is engaged in eco-developmental
works in the buffer area with special emphasis on an awareness Programme. It
is earnestly hoped that the activities of the trust will further the cause of
eco-tourism and it will become a pioneer organization to further conservation
efforts in and around the Cobett Tiger Reserve, including the tiger.
