Valmiki Park
Into the Wild – Discover Bihar’s Only Tiger Reserve & Himalayan Foothills
Valmiki National Park: Bihar’s Pristine Wilderness, Home to Tigers, Elephants & Ancient Forests
Nestled in the Himalayan Terai foothills of West Champaran district, Valmiki National Park is Bihar’s only national park and one of its richest natural habitats. Spread across 900 square kilometers, the park is part of the Valmiki Tiger Reserve and borders Nepal’s Chitwan National Park. The landscape is a vibrant mix of sal forests, grasslands, wetlands, and rivers, offering a stunning setting for both adventure and relaxation.
The reserve is home to a wide array of wildlife including Bengal tigers, Asian elephants, Indian rhinoceroses, leopards, sloth bears, and several species of deer. Over 240 species of birds have been recorded here, making it a paradise for birdwatchers. The park’s terrain also supports cycling routes, boat rides on the Gandak River, and guided nature treks that help visitors experience the biodiversity up close.
Tourists can stay in forest rest houses, eco huts, or local guesthouses, with accommodations available for a range of budgets. The park is best visited between October and June, as it remains closed during the monsoon season. With a mix of adventure, nature, and conservation learning, Valmiki National Park is a hidden gem for travelers seeking an offbeat and enriching escape into the wild.
