Trekking in the Annapurna Foothills
Nepal is a hikers paradise. Combining stunning peaks, tranquil lakes and charming villages, it remains a popular destination for adventure travellers. Nepal is home to 8 out of 10 of the world’s highest peaks, including the monstrous Mount Everest! Trekking in the Annapurna Foothills is a popular activity amongst the adventurous out there who don’t wish to take on the highest mountain in the world, but still want to experience the beauty of the Nepal Himalaya. While it requires a decent level of fitness, the treks are gentle and you will stay in comfortable mountain lodges in the heart of nature, and pass incredible mountain vistas, snow capped peaks and deep valleys. The terrain here can vary drastically, from subtropical jungle to dry landscape.
Spotting Rhino in Chitwan National Park
It was only a matter of minutes after stepping out of the dugout canoe when our guide, Bishnu came running out of the jungle to say that he had spotted our first rhino.
The irony of the situation was not lost on me. Having spent two weeks in eastern Africa on Tucan Travels Gorillas & Game Group Tour, we had spent days criss-crossing the national parks searching for the fascinating creatures but to no avail. Now, I was here in southern Nepal, much closer to South East Asia where demand for rhino horn was so high, that the rhino seemed abundant.
