Nepal Bird Watching Tour

Trip Overview

The Bird Watching Tour is organized for bird enthusiasts and nature lovers. Come along with Highland Eco Trek for an absolutely fun trip and discover the diverse birds of Nepal through a bird-watching tour in Nepal with our expert bird-watching photographer, Pratap Gurung. Nepal, being home to 887 species of birds, is the perfect place for a bird-watching tour. A bird-watching tour in Nepal is an opportunity to explore the exceptionally beautiful pheasants of Nepal along with some other natural beauties. So, take pleasure in discovering the diverse species of birds as well as the wild aspect of Nepal. Moreover, varieties of birds can be found in Kathmandu Valley only. The places around Kathmandu, like Phulchowki, Nagarjun Forest, Shivapuri, and Godawari, are perfect for bird-watching. Also, watching the migratory birds at Taudaha Lake, which is on the way to Dakshinkali, is nice for the excursion.

The bird-watching tour is not limited to Kathmandu. The tour continues from hilly Kathmandu to the open plains of Terai to the high mountain region of Nepal. In a different region, different types of birds can be found. In the higher Himalayan region, varieties of raptor birds are found. As we know, Terai holds most of the national parks of Nepal, so the bird-watching tour gets more fun and interesting in the Terai region. Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve is one of the best places for sightseeing of the birds, as migratory birds flee every season, and also for the resident birds. Each place harbors different types of birds; thus, touring different parts of Nepal gets exciting and fun.

Nepal shelters some of the rare and endangered species of birds, like the Himalayan Monal, Cheer Pheasant, Satyr Tragopan, Bengal Florican, Lesser Florican, Great Hornbill, Sarus Crane, Black Stork, and White Stork. The Spiny Babbler is the only endemic bird in Nepal.
