Covering an area of 968 km2 (374 sq mi) it is the largest and most undisturbed national park in Nepals Terai, adjoining the eastern bank of the Karnali River and bisected by the Babai River in the Bardiya District. Its northern limits are demarcated by the crest of the Siwalik Hills. The Nepalgunj-Surkhet highway partly forms the southern boundary, but seriously disrupts the protected area.

Bardiya National park is the largest national park in the lowland Terai covering an area of 968 sq.km. The park situated in Nepals Western Terai was established for protecting the representative ecosystems and conserving the habitat of tiger and its prey species. Initially, a small area was gazetted as the Karnali Wildlife Reserve in 1976. At that time, 1500 households of the Babai valley were relocated outside the park allowing the vegetation and wildlife to flourish. In 1982, it was renamed as Bardiya Wildlife Reserve, and in 1984 it was extended to its current size. The reserve was given the status of a National Park in 1988. Greater One-horned Rhinoceros were translocated from Chitwan National Park to Bardia National Park in 1986, 1991, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002. In 1997, an area of 327 km2 surrounding the park was declared as a buffer zone, which consists of forests and private lands. The park and local communities jointly manage the buffer zone. Together they initiate community development activities and manage natural resources in the buffer zones. An elephant ride provides a different view of the park as one can go off the main trail, Morning and late afternoon is the ideal time to go on a ride. Karnali river is the suitable home for Gangetic dolphin. Babai valley is a majestic place to visit where flagship Rhino, tiger, and elephant can be cited in the wilderness site.Climate: The park has three distinct seasons, winter, summer, and monsoon. Form October through early April, the weather is dry. The days are warm and the nights are cool and pleasant. From April to June the temperatures gradually rises upwith a peak temperature up to 45 0c in May. The hot sticky days give way to the monsoon rains in July that lasts until September.Flora and Fauna: The park offers a variety of experiences in its vast undisturbed wilderness. About 70% of the forest consists of sal tree with a mixture of grassland and riverine forests. Sal leaves are used as traditional plates in festival and religious offering. The park is home to endangered animals such as the Royal Bengal tiger, wild elephant, greater one-horned rhinoceros, swamp deer, and black buck, The other endangered species include gharialand marsh mugger crocodiles and gangetic dolphin. Endangered birds found in the park are Bengal florican, lesser florican and sarus crane. More that 30 different mammals, over 230 species of birds and several species of snakes, lizard and fishes have been recorded In the park area. In addition to the resident species, several migratory birds visit the park.Facilities: Museum and Tharu culture are available for visitors at HQ. Telephone and mobile phones can be used in several areas of the park. If you are traveling by private vehicle make sure that you have ample amount of fuel. Be advised to carry a comprehensive first-aid kit including medicines. There is a community health post at Thakurdwara near the park headquarter. You can spend your nights at the lodges in the surrounding areas of the park. These lodges provide service to tourists.How to get there: You can take a bus or take the flight from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj.From Nepalgunj bus services are available to the park HQ at Thakurdwara during the dry season.

Awesome place to visit but you need to stay for at least 2-3 nights for watching the tiger...

We have visit this bardiya national park for a week. It was awesome and memorable for us. Near the national park 12 km from highway we stay there Gaida camp resort. We enjoy and gain lots of knowledge. Camp fire, barbque, music dance organised by the resort specially for us was just unforgettable. Its our good luck to saw tiger, rhino, wild boar, deer, langoor, elephant, wild cat, wild hen, ghadiyal, 🐊etc.

Very good national park.I hope they keep on protecting the nature and animals.

Beautiful Jungle. You cant review nature, it reviews you.

It’s a must place to experience the wildlife in the forest !!

The parks origin began in the late 1960s when some area of 368 sq kms were set aside as royal hunting grounds. However, It wasnt until 1982 that the Royal Bardia National Reserve was officially formed, and even then it didnt become a fully fledged National Park until 1988. The aim was to preserve the diversity of decreasing species, in particular the tiger and its natural prey species.A buffer zone and community forest were established around the park to try to reduce subsistence poaching inside the park by the local communities. Without so much human interference the diverse habitats inside the park have improved greatly.

We visited this place last month (2021-Janjust to see Bengal Tiger but unfortunately we could only heard Tigers roar but could not locate it. Thrilling place to visit specially walking through the jungle and view towers. We saw one horn rhino and the tiger (in the cagewhich killed a women on the Bardiya National Park Highway. Overall, Nice and thrilling place to visit but It seems that locals are not interested in the tourism business.Three star to the Park and one star to our guide and driver.

There is a too many types of natural resources and animals like elephant,dears and mostly seen is tiger.I love bardiya national park.

Bardiya national parks is one of the biggest and most tigers populations holds.

Best place for jungle activities and tiger... we saw the tiger, stayed in tree house, enjoyed local tharu culture, etc etc. Contant Tiger Track Bardia for excellent experience and best price

Gud scenery for photography,hiking.you can enjoy local food and sakhiya dance by tharu community.

Best best for beautiful nature to see animals ♥️💕

Since farming has ceased in the Babai Valley, the natural regenerated vegetation makes the area a prime habitat for wildlife.VegetationAbout 70% of the park is covered with forest, with the balance a mixture of grassland, savannah and riverine forest.[4] The flora recorded in the park comprises 839 species of flora, including 173 vascular plant species comprising 140 dicots, 26 monocots, six fern, and one gymnosperm species.The wide range of vegetation types in forest and grassland provides excellent habitat for 642 faunal species.

From 1994 to 2000, hunters have been unsuccessful at poaching rhinos. In April 2000, there were 67 rhinos in the park, most of them resident in the Babai Valley.In May 2006, a reconnaissance survey was carried out in the Babai River floodplain, which revealed an alarming decline in the rhino population. Poaching was suspected to be the main cause of this decline. Subsequent surveys in 2007 and 2008 have confirmed the complete disappearance of rhinos from Babai Valley. In different habitats of the Karnali floodplain 25 rhinos were recorded based on direct observation and indirect signs of rhino dung and tracks. They were mostly congregated in the floodplain grassland, riverine forest and wetlands. In March 2008, only 22 rhinos were counted

Good times on a Jeep Safari through the jungle, even though we didn’t see a tiger. We did see a rhino and had a lot of fun driving on the crazy roads.

Adventures, romantic and full of natural beauty 💞❤

One of the best National park for wildlife. specially Tiger, rhinoceros and Elephant. The best season is from january to May month.

It is the largest national park in the terai area of Nepal established in 1988. It was initially established as Royal Bardiya National park in Bardiya district on the bank of Karnali River.Its very good to visit in the morning. Jungle Safari could be done either on Elephant ride or Vehicle. It feels very exciting to see different wild animals in the park.Cultural Dance are organized in the evening. Tharu Village tour also organised for the foreigners. National and International tourists visit during the New Years, Valentine days and other occasions too.

One of the best place to explore wildlife.

Wonderful to be here. One of the best national parks in the country - most things of nature left untouched - you get it when you are here.Though this park is famous for tigers, you might need to be lucky to see one or more. Rhinos, elephants and deers are common animals in abundance.If travelling by private vehicle, keep note of the strict 40kph and time card rule imposed in the national park highway.

Very good protected jungle where is the house of Bengal tiger, Asia Elephant, one horn rhino...
