"Jungle safari in Nepal is an extraordinary adventure, rich in exceptional biodiversity and set amidst the stunning natural environment. Nepal boasts 16 national parks, wildlife reserves, and conservation areas, covering a remarkable 16 percent of its total geographical area. These lush jungles offer scenic vistas and a chance to encounter some of the rarest and most endangered wildlife on Earth. Jungle safaris provide an incredible experience for visitors who appreciate staying in these pristine parks and participating in organized wildlife adventures.
Nepal, renowned for its towering peaks, is also home to tropical jungles, particularly in the Terai region, the southern lowlands of the country. These jungles harbor some of the finest wildlife habitats in the subcontinent. The dense tropical forests are teeming with thousands of bird and animal species, including some of the world’s most exotic and endangered creatures. Unfortunately, factors such as population growth, deforestation, and illegal poaching threaten the natural habitats of animals like the One-Horned Rhino, Royal Bengal Tiger, Snow Leopard, Red Panda, Blue Bull, and the Gharial Crocodile, pushing them toward extinction.
Venturing into the wilderness, you can witness wild animals, birds, and the raw beauty of nature. Whether riding on an elephant’s back or in a four-wheeler jeep, accompanied by expert naturalists, the love for nature and animals comes alive. Chitwan and Bardia are two prime locations for such thrilling activities. For example, Chitwan National Park—Nepal’s most popular—offers excellent opportunities to spot Royal Bengal Tigers, One-Horned Rhinos, and crocodiles, providing an unforgettable wilderness experience within its deep and lush jungle.
