Region
Nepal's subtropical lowlands. Chitwan National Park protects one-horned rhinos and Bengal tigers, and the eastern floodplain reserves reward patient wildlife travellers away from the main safari crowds.
Chitwan & Terai
Nepal's first UNESCO World Heritage national park shelters the highest density of one-horned rhinoceros in the world and a recovering tiger population. Jungle safaris, canoe rides on the Rapti river, and Tharu cultural performances fill three to four day itineraries. Best visited in winter when animals gather near the river.
