to Chitwan - one of the most fascinating forests in Asia.
For a country known for its beautiful mountains, the Gangetic flat lands of the Terai that stretches through out the southern part of Nepal provide a wholly different experience. (See the separate section on the Terai for more details.) A visit to Nepal remains incomplete without seeing the beauty of the Terai.
And Chitwan is the best place to do so. The Royal Chitwan National Park, established in 1973, provides a great wildlife experience with its rich flora and fauna -read further for more details. The wildlife and the landscape are not as breathtaking as those found in Africa but still, the experience will stand out.
Chitwan is only 150m above the sea level. The place gets steamy from March-June, with peak temperatures reaching 43°C in the shade. Short grass makes Feb-May the best game-viewing season, but the autumn months are gorgeous, with Himalayan views, and in winter (December-January), Chitwan is pleasantly warmed compared to Kathmandu. The monsoon season (July-August) is intense, with pounding rain, swollen rivers, and luxuriant vegetation. While the rain isn't constant, the humidity is all pervasive.
You will be driven to the lodge situated in the heart of the jungle where, the rooms are assigned and are briefed by the guest relation officer (or the lodge manager) about the programs that are to be done. Generally, activities start at around 3:30 pm, with Elephant ride. You will ride on an elephant to explore the jungle & the wildlife to see the one-horned rhinoceros, several types of deer, monkeys, wild boar, bison, sloth bear, leopard and, if lucky, the Royal Bengal tiger. This exciting ride lasts for 2-3 hours.
At 6:30 pm, you will be retreated with the Slide show. With the dinner at the central dining hall at 7:00 pm, we end our day for tonight. Or if you are in the junglee mood, you can enjoy with the glass of different wines or beers available there.
Overnight will be in Chitwan.
Day 24 : Chitwan
Today you have to wake up early at 5:30 am, (its hard for you if you are lazy!), and start your day with the tea or coffee and proceed for the elephant ride/bird watching at 6:00 am. This encounter on foot with the environment will introduce the main features of the eastern Chitwan, Sal forests, open grassland and reverie jungle. The expert naturalist there will help you to identify the seen birds, plants and other wildlife that you may encounter.
Have breakfast at 8:00 am and prepare yourself for the elephant briefing, Learn more about these fascinating animals during a visit to our elephant stable. (For the brave ones there is even a crash course in riding and leading the elephants).
Have your lunch at 1:00 pm, and prepare yourself for the canoeing - a traditional dugout canoe takes you on a silent trip down the Rapti River to view aquatic birds and the animals of the riverbanks. Back to resort through the Jungle.
Enjoy your evening with the Stick dance of the ethnic group, the tharus at 7:00 pm., which is the dance performed by the farmers of the nearby villages showing their traditional skills and dances.
