Spend a Wonderful Day with our Beloved Elephants
This year we retired our elephants from Safari and now working with Direct Aid Nepal we have developed some wonderful ethical activities for you to experience with our elephants. One is spending the entire day with our elephants. You can join our Elephant Day
- Start the day with a bush walk in the early morning observing our elephants graze, pull down branches, and just being elephants.
- In appropriate weather the elephants enjoy bathing; they are graceful swimmers and fun to watch.
- Join our Mahouts (Caretakers) for cleaning the enclosures, making elephant food (Kuchi), feeding them from the respecting distance
- A jeep will take you and the Mahouts to collect elephant food an adventure in itself and the elephants love what you collect.
