The park also has Thand or Tharu native people with their own camps and unique dance shows.

    Chitwan National Park, located 150 km from KTM, is accessible by road and air transport. The transport from Kathmandu to Chitwan National Park passes through some beautiful landscapes, such as terrace farming, hills, rivers, and valleys.

The Chitwan National Park tour package contributes to the conservation of this park, as well as sustainable tourism for the environment and the community. It is the best chance to visit the natural sites in the world of Nepal and be part of the struggle to conserve them for future generations.

    About the Chitwan National Park

    Chitwan National Park, which was gazetted in 1973, is one of Nepal's first national parks and a World Heritage Site since 1984. Sukla Phanta is situated in the subtropical Terai lowlands of south-central Nepal and occupies an area of 932 square kilometers. It is famous for its diverse and picturesque environment. It is a complex of dense forests with meadows and rivers, making it possible to find almost any kind of animal there. Among the most well-known residents, one can mention the one-horned rhinoceros and the Bengal tiger, which are instrumental in the park’s preservation program. Chitwan has forests, marshland, and grassland for its habitat and, as a result, is one of the best wildlife viewing locations in all of Asia.

    Besides the rich wildlife, it boasts an active one, which is famous for more than seven hundred species of wildlife like leopards, sloth bears, wild elephants, and gharial crocodiles. The park also has over 500 bird species, making it popular among bird watchers and other researchers. This is combined with the park's beautiful nature, which includes large forest spaces, clear water in rivers, and wonderful views of the Himalayas' foothills. Because of this, Chitwan draws many visitors who are interested in nature and adventure. The park and its many conservation activities, such as anti-poaching activities and community incentives, will help protect those species and enhance tourism's value.

    A visit to Chitwan National Park also reveals cultural attributes. Tharu villages, home to indigenous people socially and culturally distinct from the mainstream Nepali community, encircle this park. You can interact with Tharus through guided village tours, witnessing a Tharu dance, or sampling Tharu dishes. Such cultural interactions provide a way of understanding how societies share their environment, in this case, with nature, while demanding societal engagement in conservation. In conclusion, Chitwan National Park is an extraordinary place that offers a hot mix of beauty and hospitality to people who want to turn their vacation into an adventure discovering the exotic Nepalese wilds.

The proposed tour to Chitwan National Park promises to provide an enriching experience filled with excitement and the unique attractions that visiting Nepal's tourist district has to offer—a tour that will leave no room for complaints about boredom.

    The best time, season, or month for the Chitwan National Park tour.

    Chitwan district has a scorching summer and a cold winter, and this leaves tourists with questions as to when is the right time to visit Chitwan for a holiday. If you are not an admirer of the hot and humid climate of Chitwan, the best months to plan a three-day tour of Chitwan National Park are September, October, April, and May.

    The best times to visit Chitwan are from September to May because there are almost no chances of rain. We recommend visiting from mid-October to March if you prefer cool weather and low humidity. Still, if you can stand the heat that prevails in Trabzon in April and May, then the best time to go is in either of these two months. Remember that the mercury may rise to about 40 °CC in these months as well. Although fog may obscure the town and jungle, November, December, and January are the best months to visit Chitwan. Additionally, pollution from industrialization, automobiles, and garbage burning may result in a fog-induced haze, thereby limiting the enjoyment of the trip.

    Difficulty level on the Chitwan National Park Tour

    The Chitwan National Park in Nepal offers a one-day tour that is not very demanding, catering to the needs of physically challenged travelers as well. One major factor is that while trekking, you cover distance on feet where one needs to traverse through the rough terrain and move at a quick pace. The Chitwan wildlife tour mainly involves vehicular movement. Therefore, the tour will not cause stress due to long walks or hiking, making it suitable for families with children and the elderly. We classify it as a beginner's tour, with most activities considered easy. For most of the purposes of moving within the park, such as the view and safaris, among other experiences, the use of a car will predominate, resulting in limited body movement. Thus, anyone can easily do the 3-day Chitwan National Park tour, and there is no need to be in hiking form or have special hiking skills.

    However, one must be prepared for the conditions and climate of the place he or she is in. However, during a specific period of the year, Chitwan can still be quite hot and humid, so it's advisable to pack appropriately with protective gear against the strong sun. Nevertheless, these have not caused a lot of harm on the tour, which is quite enjoyable, easygoing, and offers a close view of the wildlife if one is interested in it.

    Travel insurance for the Chitwan National Park tour

    If a traveler embarks on a 3-day tour to Chitwan National Park in Nepal with Hiking Adventure Treks, travel insurance is not mandatory but rather a matter of choice. Unlike other adventures, such as mountain trekking, Chitwan National Park is relatively free of risky activities. All tour activities, such as Jeep tours and canoeing tours, present minimal or no risk factors and are safe ways to explore the vast park. Although not compulsory for this tour, it is highly advisable to take out a travel insurance policy just in case. Despite the fact that such situations happen and are rather infrequent, and we have not received any serious complaints in the past, insurance is always beneficial to have. This is especially true when going on a jungle trek, as an encounter with wildlife or an incident, however unlikely, can happen. Another recommended option is travel insurance. Those who decide to purchase it will always feel confident having some kind of shield from any unpredictable condition that may happen during the trip.

    Safety is our top priority, and our unremitting effort is to ensure your comfort throughout Hiking Adventure Treks. We do not provide any tour insurance here, but it is our pleasure to suggest you check your personal circumstances, and if you prefer, you can take the trip insurance. Thus, you will have the opportunity to take your time to appreciate the fantastic wildlife and other natural perks of Chitwan National Park.
