Then some exciting whitewater rafting on the Trisuli river (no previous experience is needed, just a sense of fun and the spirit of adventure) and wildlife game viewing excursions in the Royal Chitwan National Park. The variety of game supported by the park are One Horned Rhino, Royal Bengal Tiger, Leopard, Sloth Bear, Wild Boar, Monitor Lizard, four kinds of Deer, two types of Crocodiles and over 450 species of Birds.
