Flight - A 15 minute flight from Kathmandu to the
Bharatpur airport in Chitwan followed by
a drive of about 40 minutes is one of the
popular ways to arrive at Gaida.
Road - A scenic
and enjoyable access to Gaida is by road.
The four hour country drive on the Prithvi
Highway following the beautiful Trishuli
river is a very rewarding experience.
The drive through small villages, seeing
people of diverse ethnic origins and terraced
fields, presents an enchanting scene.
Raft - A raft
trip of varying lengths on the Gandaki,
Trishuli or Narayani rivers followed by
a short drive escorted by Gaida representatives
to the Gaida Jungle Lodge & Camp is
another popular means to get the resort.
What to Bring - Besides your camera, sunblock, sunhat, sunglasses, mosquito repellant, and warm clothing (during cool winter nights - Nov to Feb), Gaida recommends cool cotton clothing of neutral color (match the jungle) and no scented perfumes during your trips inside the park. You will want long sleeves and trousers for your elephant back safari into the high grass and through dense forest. Also, throw in a flashlight (torch) for night time, as all lighting is natural to avoid disturbances to local wildlife.
