2 nights in a sub-tropical jungle
During our upcoming spiritual adventure to the Himalayas in Oct we will spend 2-nights at Chitwan National Park in Nepal. 50-days to go before we begin our Himalayan journey. There are spots available and we’d love to have you join us. For more information about the journey please visit our website on The Himalayas spiritual adventure. You may also email info@vedicodyssey.com for more details.
On day 7 we leave our lake side town of Pokhara and head south to one of Asia’s premier wildlife viewing parks, Chitwan. Our cottages are deep within the park itself, a rare and but much welcomed opportunity to be so close to the animals. We’ll spend 2-nights here with much time to go jungle trekking either on foot or on an elephant’s back. The chances are high to spot one-horned rhinos, deer, monkeys and around 450 species of birds. And for those fortunate ones perhaps even leopards, sloth bears, wild elephants and if you are really lucky, the royal Bengal tiger.
