for four hours. A great way to spot wildlife in areas further inside the
Park, which is less trodden. Canoeing along the Rapti river is another
option. With some luck you will get to see Gharial crocodiles, marsh muggers,
and variety of fish. With a lot of luck you may be able to see a Gangetic
dolphin. The trip is a paradise for birdwatchers with possible spotting
of kingfishers, ospreys, and egrets. Chitwan is known to have 400 species
of birds. Jungle walks through the jungle is a good way to spot game.
Monkeys, birds and deer are assured; rhinos are less common (but not uncommon).
