From Dhela safari gate
Tusk and Roar sits in village Dhela, just 1 km from the Jhirna zone safari gate of Corbett National Park โ which means the forest isn't a backdrop here, it's literally at the back fence. Spread across 5 acres with a river boundary, 18 rooms split between concrete villas, mud houses, and a family suite give you a range of options depending on how close to the jungle you want to feel.

What the location actually means for dog owners
Being 1 km from the Dhela gate sounds exciting, but it also means you are in active wildlife corridor country. The forest edge adjoins the property's rear boundary, and the surrounding area is genuine Jim Corbett buffer zone โ not manicured resort landscaping. For dogs, this means morning walks with the smell of wild on the breeze, but it also means you'll need to keep your dog leashed and close to you at all times outside the property grounds. The resort's 5-acre footprint gives reasonable space to stretch legs within the boundary. The river at the back is an added draw, though conditions vary by season.
โ ๏ธ Wildlife corridor โ leash mandatory
Tusk and Roar's rear boundary touches the Corbett forest edge in a known wildlife zone. Leopard and elephant movement in the DhelaโJhirna area is documented. Keep dogs leashed at all times outside the main resort grounds, especially at dawn and dusk. Do not let pets roam unattended near the river boundary or forest fence.
