In the
western part of the country, Jumla & Rara lie in
the remote Karnali region, northwest of
Kathmandu. The Rara region is made-up of long
ridges covered with temperate forests and alpine
pastures enclosing high valleys. Summer rainfall
is low, but winter snow can be heavy and
persistent.
Since the region is fairly high and
free from monsoon thunderstorms, the summer
season is ideal for trekking. Winters are cold,
but the autumn seasons trekking is rewarded with
a profusion of alpine flowers. The trail is very
much "off the beaten path" and affords glimpses
of culture and scenery very different from those
in the rest of the country. The centerpiece of
the park is the biggest lake of Nepal. Along
mountain paths and a series of picturesque
villages, one reaches the magnificent banks of Rara Lake. The park includes Trans- Himalayan
valley with high ridges covered with forest and
alpine pastures. Being among the local people
with their distinctive culture and traditions
gives the visitor a unique experience and makes
for a wonderful holiday. The primitive people
give the trekker a look backward and a chance to
reflect on his own modern society and
development.
The great high mountains scenery enchants and
fascinate as always. Like most of Nepal, Rara
National Park is a naturalist's dream. Animals
like the gaur, serow, musk deer, yellow-throated
martin and a wide variety of birds such as the
impeyan pheasant, Kalij and dove are ever
present. |
