The Royal Chitwan National Park, one of
Asia's richest and most spectacular
wildlife sanctuaries, is situated 75 air
miles southwest of 'Kathmandu'. In this
panoramic jungle setting we operate a
unique vacation facility.
Of all the world's remaining jungles,
one of the most enchanting is Royal
Chitwan National Park in the Himalayan
Kingdom of Nepal. Here, at Chitwan
Jungle Lodge, you will discover a lost
world of towering trees and twisting
vines, of pre-historic rhino and
lumbering elephants, of crocodile,
python and deer; of brilliantly colored
birds and if you are fortunate - the
superb Royal Bengal Tiger.
Chitwan Jungle Lodge is proud to be the
pioneers of environmentally sensitive
nature tourism in Nepal. Our Lodge is
used as a model throughout Asia. We
believe that responsible and controlled
tourism can benefit conservation and
indigenous people.
Chitwan Jungle Lodge lies in the park,
on the banks of the river Rapti. Listen
to the sounds of nature, the
forest-birdsong, the rustle of deer in
the bushes or the tempting call of
elephants. From the moment you wake at
dawn to roam through the jungle on
elephant back, to the quiet talk around
the camp fire at day's end: Chitwan
Jungle Lodge - the unforgettable
experience.
Built from Natural materials it blends
perfectly with its jungle surroundings,
and offers luxurious facilities. All the
individual bungalows at Chitwan Jungle
Lodge are perfectly blended with natural
surroundings. The rooms are tastefully
