Tiger Tops Lodge: Royal Chitwan National Park

Situated 75 miles southwest of Kathmandu is the Royal Chitwan National Park, one of Asia's richest and most spectacular wildlife sanctuaries. Tiger Tops Jungle Lodge, a treetop hotel, lies deep in the heart of the Royal Chitwan National Park.

Activities while being in the jungle include wildlife viewing on elephant back, landrover drives, boat trips, jungle treks, birdwatching excursions, wildlife viewing and photographing from machans [blinds] and an evening slide show, all escorted by an experienced naturalist.

In the lodge, each room has solar-powered reading lamps and ceiling fans, with solar-heated showers in the attached modern toilet amenity. The Nepalese-style dining hall with its huge domed roof and central open hearth is a special place for relaxation. Nepalese and Western cuisine is served and a fully stocked bar is open until the last guest retires to bed.
