Private 10-Day Wings on Migration Nepal Birding Tour
A ten-day private migration-season journey through Kathmandu, Pokhara and Chitwan, combining wetlands, hill habitats and lowland national park birding.
About this tour
Time a journey through central Nepal for seasonal bird movements and the resident species that share their wintering or passage habitats. The route connects Kathmandu Valley with Pokhara’s lakes and hills, then continues to the forests, grasslands and rivers of Chitwan.
Pokhara lies on an important movement corridor for birds crossing the Himalayan region, while Chitwan adds lowland specialties, vultures and broader wildlife. The program balances guided birding with private overland travel and national-park activities.
The published program is leisurely and designed for two to ten guests. The currently displayed 2026-2027 departures, twin-share price and included services are recorded here, subject to Nature Treks Nepal’s final confirmation for each inquiry.
