Riverside Reveries

Tanhau is located on top of a ridge between two beautiful river valleys of the Ramganga and the Kosi. We will drive you down to one of the two rivers for you to spend time by the riverside – bird watching, splashing around, exploring the surroundings or just experiencing the simple joy of sitting beside a river in a beautiful location.

Depending on the weather and your preference, you could either go there for a picnic lunch or towards the evening. Enjoy watching the sun going down over the water. At dusk, we drive back to Tanhau hoping to see something special on the way.

Drive at Dusk

Join us on a drive in the evening in the nearby area, and if you’re lucky you could see some wildlife. Dusk & dawn are prime times when animals choose to move so it’s always exciting to keep a look out for them. You can also join us in putting up the camera traps at the property that we hope will record movement of any animals during the night.

Day Trips and Excursions

Tanhau’s location is such that a variety of interesting day trips is possible. If you are in the mood for more mountains, we could take you for a leisurely day trip to Ranikhet or the lesser known hill station of Manila. These places offer great views of the Himalayan peaks, picturesque drives and the opportunity to see some different hill birds from what are found in Tanhau.
On the other hand, if you would rather explore more of the Corbett area we could take you to some of the other parts surrounding Corbett such as the Sitabani side, Kaladhungi, Maidavan, Mundipani. Beautiful forests, deserted jungle roads and the chance of spotting wildlife make this an exciting option.
