Through the jungle in Nepal

November 6, 2012 in Nepal, On the road

Nepal consists of high mountains and white peaks – that’s what we thought. So we were really surprised to find out that it has also areas with tropical jungle forests, with tigers, elephants and crocodiles.

There are several national parks in Nepal, where you can experience the jungle and its wildlife. We stayed at the Bardia National Park for a few days, and went for an excursion deep into the jungle, where we sometimes got closer to the wildlife than we actually wanted – well, this refers only to the leeches that found us somehow very attractive….

 

We watched a big herd of wild elephants; we saw lots of footprints of tigers and rhinos, huge spiders, colourful insects, and crocodiles with more than 2 metres – an amazing experience. Of course we want to share some of the photos from this amazing trip into the jungle with you.
