The Pool Side venue at Ashoka's Tiger Trail Resort is an open-air event space set against the natural backdrop of Dhela village in Ramnagar, Uttarakhand — one of the gateway communities to Jim Corbett National Park. Framed by the lush forest landscape that defines this part of the Kumaon region, the setting offers something few event venues in India can genuinely claim: the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of the wild as a living part of the event experience. Whether it is the rustle of sal trees overhead or the distant call of birds, the environment itself becomes an integral element of any gathering held here.
The space draws its character from the resort's broader philosophy of immersive nature hospitality. The poolside location creates a relaxed yet visually striking setting — open skies above, water alongside, and the resort's naturalistic landscaping providing a sense of enclosure without walls. This combination of openness and intimacy makes it equally suited to an evening cocktail reception and a daytime celebratory lunch.
The Pool Side venue is well suited to a range of social and celebratory events, particularly those where guests value an escape from the urban event circuit. Intimate weddings and pre-wedding functions such as mehendi or haldi ceremonies find a natural home here, with the forest resort setting lending an organic, unhurried mood that is difficult to replicate in a city banquet hall. The space also works for corporate retreats and team-building events where the goal is to step away from boardroom conventions and encourage connection in a more relaxed environment.
Given the resort's positioning as a nature and wildlife destination near Jim Corbett, the Pool Side is especially popular with groups who want to combine an event with an experiential stay — safaris, nature walks, or birdwatching can be woven into a multi-day programme, making the event more memorable than a stand-alone gathering. Family celebrations, milestone anniversaries, and small reunion gatherings are also a natural fit for this kind of setting.
Ashoka's Tiger Trail Resort is located in Dhela, a hamlet within the Ramnagar block of Uttarakhand that sits on the edge of Jim Corbett National Park's buffer zone. Ramnagar is the nearest town and serves as the main access point for the Corbett region, with Ramnagar Railway Station providing a direct rail link from Delhi and other major cities in northern India. The resort's forest-edge location means it sits at a genuine remove from urban noise and congestion, which is part of its appeal — but event planners should factor in travel logistics and guest accommodation as part of the planning process. The surrounding landscape of the Terai arc ensures that the Pool Side venue offers year-round natural beauty, though the monsoon and cooler winter months each bring their own distinct character to an outdoor event here.

The natural landscape of the Pool Side space — open skies, the poolside setting, and the surrounding forest greenery — provides a strong visual foundation that many hosts choose to complement with minimalist or nature-inspired décor.

The Pool Side is situated in Dhela, which borders the buffer zone of Jim Corbett National Park — an ecologically sensitive area. It is advisable to check with the resort whether there are any noise or music curfew guidelines in place, particularly for evening events, to ensure the event plan aligns with local regulations and the resort's own policies.
The Ramnagar and Corbett region experiences distinct seasons — a warm and dry spring, a monsoon period roughly from June through September, and cooler winter months from November through February. Each season brings a different atmosphere to an outdoor event at the Pool Side. Many event planners prefer the post-monsoon and winter months for outdoor celebrations due to pleasant temperatures and clear skies, but the best timing depends on the nature of the event and guest preferences.
Ashoka's Tiger Trail Resort is a resort property in Dhela, and on-site parking is generally expected to be available for guests arriving by personal vehicle or hired transport. For large events with significant vehicular movement, it is advisable to confirm parking capacity and any vehicle management arrangements directly with the resort's team well in advance.
Pricing for event bookings at the Pool Side will depend on factors such as the number of guests, event duration, catering requirements, and any additional services requested. The resort does not publish event pricing on its official website, so the recommended first step is to reach out to the Ashoka's Tiger Trail Resort events or reservations team with the event date, estimated guest count, and type of occasion to receive a tailored proposal.
Unlike a conventional banquet hall, the Pool Side venue at Ashoka's Tiger Trail Resort places guests directly within a forest-edge natural environment on the boundary of Jim Corbett National Park, where the landscape itself becomes part of the event experience. The combination of the poolside setting, open skies, surrounding sal forest, and the sounds of the natural world creates an atmosphere that is difficult to replicate in an urban venue. For hosts seeking a destination event that leaves a lasting impression, this setting offers a genuinely distinctive alternative.
