kasara resort

Kasara has been designed in response to its surrounding landscape, fluidly blending comfort with nature.

Guests can connect with the surroundings through a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor space. The use of natural wood, subtle shades and chic interior adds to the unique charm.

Elephant Experience/ Elephant Briefing & Bathing (1.5 Hours) - During the guests’ stay with us they will be allotted an elephant, a mahout and a naturalist. The naturalist will teach the guest/s everything they need to know about elephants. The mahout will guide and teach the guest to prepare snacks and meals for the elephant. The guest can spend an entire day and engage in activities such as bathing the elephant, feeding it, learn a few commands, accompany the elephant when it goes to collect grass. All this will be done under the supervision of the mahout and the Naturalist to ensure that the guests have a safe and good time.

Elephant Safaris (1.5 Hours): Elephant Safaris have remained a popular jungle activity in the Chitwan National park for generations. In the era gone by, such safaris were regularly reserved for hunting parties of Aristocrats and Royals. For some time now, elephant safaris have

served as medium through which guests to the region can connect with Chitwan’s forests and its inhabitants. On the safaris, the Mahout leads the elephant on a journey to seek out the forest’s wild animals in their natural setting. The lucky ones often go home with photographic proof of the prized one horned rhino, or even the Bengal tiger! Although the connection with nature and the experience of being in the forest, on the back of an elephant is no second prize!

Canoe ride (Canoeing+ Jungle walk+ CBC visit: 1.5 hours) – A scenic trip cruising on the Rapti River in a dugout canoe, made from a single tree. Guests can spot various birds and crocodile species and other animals alongside the banks.

Jungle walk - Jungle walk is an educational and healthy way to get to know the Chitwan forests and its habitat. Our expert guides and naturalist will escort our

our activities & ProgramsThe lakes and rivers

of the park are home to an abundance

of Marsh Mugger crocodiles and the rare, endangered, fish-eating

Gharial crocodile.

Explore the park with trained guides - by

jeep, from the top of an elephant or on a guided

walking tour.

Chitwan National Park is one of the best places in the world to observe and study a wide array

of rare bird species. In addition to an

abundance of resident species, many types of migrating birds arrive

at Kasara in the winter from places as far as Siberia and beyond.

guests in these walks, sightings of various species of animals such as deer, rhinos, monkeys and birds are some of the perks of going on the jungle walk.

Crocodile Breeding Center (CBC) - The visit to the Crocodile breeding center is another educational tour where our guests can observe and learn of the utmost care taken to preserve and breed species of crocodile to prevent them from going extinct.

Jeep safari (3 hours) – With our first of its kind 4WD Safari jeep, guests will be taken on an adventurous tour into the jungle where they can spot and photograph the one horned rhinoceros, Royal Bengal Tiger, Leopard, Sloth bear, various species of deer, monkey and birds.

Ox Cart Village Tour (1 Hour) – Ox cart ride is a fun way to explore the Tharu village and learn about their culture. The Tharu ethnic group has long inhabited the Chitwan region. And so a trip to this part of the

world would not be complete without getting a sense of what their world and lives are like. We offer to take our guests to their villages so they can interact with the locals.

Cycling: Our guests can also opt to take a tour around the area in a cycle, another great way to explore the surrounding areas.

Tharu Cultural Dance: In the evening, guests at Kasara can experience the vibrant traditional cultural performances of the Tharu community. These performances tell the tales of their culture, and their wardrobes reflect the relationship between their people and their environment. The performance takes place by the outdoor fireplace, and guests should come prepared to dance! This performance, for which Kasara offers a generous honorarium, is also a way in which the community and our resort partner to literally make it feasible to keep the traditional performances alive for future generations.
