Machhan Wildlife
Resort |
Where the Sal forest of the
Chitwan jungle meets the wide and beautiful valley of the Rapti
river, the world is wild and splendid. Broad grassland sweeps north
to the Mahabharata range and virgin jungle extends south to the
Churia hills. For centuries the dense jungle bordering on the
foothills of the Himalayas formed an impenetrable barrier, keeping
Nepal a hidden and mysterious kingdom. The last three decades have
seen that barrier breached, but the jungle of the Royal Chitwan
National Park remains a world apart. Here the spirit of great
explorer-adventurers still lives.
With the opening of Machan Wildlife Resort a new chapter is being
written in adventure and exploration in the Chitwan jungle. The
perfect beauty of its setting allows one to realize a fantasy most
of us have cherished since childhood: the spirit of Mowgli in the
world of Rudyard Kip ling. |

Services & Facilities |
Rooms |
|
The accommodation at Machan Wildlife Resort is
in timber-framed bungalows having private bathrooms providing modern
toilet amenities. To blend with the environment, lighting is by
kerosene lanterns which we place outside your rooms at sundown. The
main building with the dining room and bar and the pathway to the
rooms are lighted by electric bulbs, and the power comes from a
generator.
The paintings on the walls and the curtains also have a peculiar
charm of it’s own. They were created by the women of Nepal’s Methyl
culture.These women live in villages near the Tear town of Janakpur,
where Sita, the heroine of The Ramayana, was married to the God,
Ram. The villages once belonged to a Kingdom called Mithila and
today the women continue to maintain the rich ancient traditions of
their culture. |

Activities & Services |
|
At Machan Wildlife Resort, a team of expert
naturalists has been formed under the leadership of Dr. Charles
Ramble, an anthropologist and naturalist with wide experience of
Nepal. They will share their knowledge of the jungle’s flora and
fauna as they guide you on elephant back and in Landrovers, on
nature walks and bird-watching excursions Canoeing is done in
traditional dugout canoes which will give you a tranquil
crocodile’s-eye view of the jungle, and a few miles drive upstream
to the villages of the Danwar tribal community will allow you a
glimpse into the lives of the jungle dwellers of Nepal.
When the spirit of the explorer-adventurers is strongest, we will
trek with you into the dense forests of the Churia hills, the last
domain in Chitwan where wild elephants still roam. Hidden in this
remote region are the remains of ancient settlements that the jungle
has reclaimed. To appreciate MACHAN fully we recommend a visit of
not less than 3 days. |
