Watching Birds on their Migration to Nepal
TripCode: NAT009
Duration: 10 Days

Migration of birds is an enigmatic event for humans but it’s so amazing to see the birds migrating to the same place in same time throughout their life. About twenty percent of birds that makes to Nepal, migrate from as far as Siberia and other parts of the world. It’s an incredible experience to see them in the forest, in open area/sky, and in wetlands. In this trip, we combine finest national parks of lowland and the rich Pokhara valley and hills around. Pokhara valley is connected flyway for many species of birds that migrate Tibet and above. In this tour you will enjoy many local, nationally and globally endangered (GTS) and rare species of birds. Some of them area such as Great Hornbill, White-rumped Vulture with other vultures, Yellow-breasted Bunting, Bengal and Lesser Floricans, Black-crested Baza, Steppe Eagle  and many other species.

Why this trip!

Autumn and winter are the best birding season in Nepal as numerous birds migrate as far as from Siberia. Many of them just pass by, making the short stay and many of them make Nepal as their wintering ground. The itinerary is designed to give you the maximum sighting of these beautiful birds with some of the major places that they winter such as Pokhara when they migrate from Tibet and Chitwan and even Kathmandu. At the same time, you will also experience the rare and endangered wildlife of Nepal, such as Royal Bengal Tiger, Great One-horned Rhino, Common Leopard, Sloth Beer, Asiatic Wild Elephant and Blue Bull etc.

Group size – 2-10 pax

What to expect and not to expect

Remember you tour is into the natural areas, not in captivity and hence sighting of birds and major wildlife depends entirely on their movement and the chance. Sometimes you will be able to sight almost all major animals and birds you wish and sometimes just few. However, being in nature is never disappointing and is always a rewarding experience. There is always an opportunity to come across many beautiful birds and animals signs, which is equally interesting experience the beauty of nature.
