Jungle Safari

Jeep Safari through Amaltari

The Jeep Safari at Amaltari offers an immersive journey into the core and buffer zones of Chitwan National Park. Traversing deep jungle trails, grasslands, riverbanks, and sal forests, this experience is a highlight for wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

Safari Timing

• Morning Shift: 7:00 AM – 11:00 AM
• Evening Shift: 2:30 PM – 6:00 PM

Both shifts offer unique sightings. Mornings are great for spotting fresh animal tracks and birds, while evenings may bring more frequent sightings of larger mammals returning to the riverbanks.

Pickup and Drop-off

We offer convenient pickup and drop-off services from local hotels and lodges around Amaltari. The jeep arrives approximately 15–30 minutes before the safari begins, depending on your location. Please be ready at your hotel reception area.

Safari Routes

The Amaltari Jeep Safari route covers a variety of terrains and biodiversity hotspots within the western section of Chitwan National Park, including:

• Rani Community Forest: Great for early sightings of spotted deer and langurs.
• Gaidakot Grasslands: Prime location for one-horned rhinoceroses and wild boars.
• Banka Tal: A peaceful lake area home to aquatic birds, crocodiles, and marsh mugger.
• Kali Nadi Riverbanks: Frequent spot for gharials and sometimes Bengal tigers on the prowl.
• Observation Towers: Safely observe wildlife in open meadows and watering holes.

What to Expect

• Sightings of one-horned rhinoceroses, deer, wild boar, sloth bears, and occasionally Bengal tigers or leopards.
• Over 500 species of birds including peacocks, hornbills, kingfishers, and crested serpent eagles.
• Chance encounters with crocodiles, jungle cats, and reptiles sunning along riverbanks.

Guidelines to Follow

• Always follow your guide’s instructions strictly.
• Remain seated and avoid loud noises or sudden movements.
• Do not feed animals or throw food into the jungle.
• Photography is allowed, but avoid using flash near animals.
• Smoking and drinking alcohol during the safari is prohibited.

Note: Wildlife sightings can never be guaranteed, as animals roam freely in their natural habitat. Patience and silence improve your chances significantly.
