Introduction of Chitwan: 3 nights 4 days Tour

The first, and still the most popular, National Park in Nepal is Chitwan. Created in 1973, it became a World Heritage Site in 1984. So you can imagine its importance to the country’s landscape, and in more recent decades, to the tourism industry. Home to some of the largest mammals on earth – the one-horned Asian rhinos, Asian elephants, and Royal Bengal Tigers – it is also home to many species of monkeys, deer, and smaller mammals.

Although most of the park is flat, forest-covered land, it also takes in the Sivalik Hills and runs along the southern part of Nepal, bordering India to the south. It is the traditional home to the Tharu people, most of whom were moved out when the park boundaries were set up.

It has a sub-tropical climate, making it very hot in the dry and monsoon seasons. Most of the forests are of sal trees and a large area of high grasses, traditionally cut and used as building materials for local houses.

Because of its close location to Kathmandu, Chitwan National Park has grown as a popular tourist destination. Originally it was more a place for wildlife enthusiasts, but as lodges and hotels became more comfortable, it became more attractive to all visitors.

Activities

There are many exciting activities available in Chitwan. Or relax by the riverside and soak up the atmosphere of the jungle visible across the water. The most popular activities include jungle walks, jeep safaris, and bird watching. And everyone enjoys the local cultural tours and shows.

Accommodation

Green Park, Chitwan, is an extremely comfortable hotel that has been running for over six years in Chitwan. All the rooms have private bathrooms, such as tea and coffee-making facilities, and air conditioning. Its outside bar and swimming pool make it an ideal place to relax day and evening.

Food is included in the package rate and combines Western, Nepali, and Indian cuisine.

How to Get There

There is a tourist bus from Kathmandu to Chitwan, where you will be met by the hotel or the option of getting there by private car or flight. If you decide to fly, there is another hour of road travel once you reach Bharatpur airport. By road Chitwan is around 5 hours’ drive. By flight it takes around 20 minutes, plus that extra hour by road.
