I’m taking my dad for an overdue trip to Nepal for 8 days at the end of April. We are keen to get a combination of time in the plains and the mountains, both for the birds and for experiencing some of what Nepal and its culture has to offer. Unfortunately 8 days already seems too short to do these properly but then we can always come back another time!
I am not sure whether we should target Royal Chitwan or Kashi Tappu at that time of year. Birds are the priority though of course I will not complain at the chance of sighting Rhinos, Tigers or any other wildlife that is on offer. As for the mountain range, is there anywhere that is accessible for 3 nights from Kathmandu that offers a good combination of nice scenery to walk in along with a few special birds?
Any other advice on making the most of a short trip to this country would be great.
