Shuklaphanta National Park Safari, located in the far-western Terai of Nepal, is the country’s smallest national park but one of the most rewarding for wildlife lovers. Known for its vast grasslands, wetlands, and floodplain ecosystems, the park is home to the largest herd of swamp deer in Nepal and has become a model of grassland conservation.
Previously a royal hunting reserve, Shuklaphanta was declared a wildlife reserve in 1976 and later upgraded to a national park in 2017. Today, it protects a diverse range of wildlife, including tigers, leopards, elephants, swamp deer, sloth bears, wild boars, and one-horned rhinoceroses. It also shelters over 423 species of birds and 46 species of mammals, making it a haven for birdwatchers.
Culturally, the region is rich in Tharu heritage, offering visitors a chance to experience traditional lifestyles, village walks, and colorful cultural performances. Unlike the more crowded parks of Chitwan and Bardia, Shuklaphanta offers a tranquil and off-the-beaten-path safari experience, perfect for travelers seeking peace, nature, and authentic encounters.
