WHY MUNIDIYAPANI FOREST REST HOUSE

Most of the people visit Mundiyapani FRH just Because their Booking agent Refer this place as the Most Famous Dhikala Forest rest house is not available due to huge demand and popularity of it as Tiger Sighting is Guarantee there.

But, Few Visitors Like me visit Mundiyapani FRH just because they love to explore the Deep and Dence Forest of Jim Corbett National Park while staying in a more than 100 years old colonial clean and luxury bungalow. Mundiyapani FRH is also a Perfect Place for Bird Watching as Corbett park itself contains 650 Different species of Birds.
