Bardia National Park

Bardia National park, approximately 450 km from Kathmandu, is spread over 968 sq.km and located in the western Nepal Terai. It is easily the largest and least disturbed wilderness spread in the Terai, and is predominantly Sal forest sprinkled with tall grasslands. It is here that your chances of spotting a tiger in Nepal are the highest. Other animals include the rhinoceros, swamp deer, leopards, jungle cats, blue bulls, sloth bears, barking deer and langurs. There are a few wild elephants, and one of the males is considered the largest in Asia!

The Geruwa river that rushes in through a break in the hill range, is home to the famous mahseer game fish, gharial- mugger crocodile and the freshwater gangetic dolphin. The park also has dangerous snakes like cobras, kraits and pythons. The park boasts more than 250 species of birds, including the endangered Bengal florican, Sarus crane and many species of geese, ducks and parakeets. The best season to visit this park is from October to March. The activities include jungle safari on elephant back, jungle walks, boat rides and jeep drives which make your jungle safari a fine holiday trip. You may feel like going to the Royal Chitwan Park but the excitement differs.
