It is one of the Wildlife reserve in eastern part of Nepal. Large number of birds migrate here in different seasons and is best place for bird watching. There is also a museum where we can see some of the preserved birds and animals. If timing favours you can watch crocodiles,wild buffalo, deer & elephants.
The Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve is a protected area in the Terai of eastern Nepal covering 175 km2 (68 sq mi) of wetlands in the Sunsari, Saptari and Udayapur Districts. It comprises extensive mudflats, reed beds, and freshwater marshes in the floodplain of the Sapta Kosi River, and ranges in altitude from 75 to 81 m (246 to 266 ft). It was established in 1976 and designated as a Ramsar site in December 1987.
During 1997 to 1998, an interview survey was conducted in the Paschim Kasuha VDC adjacent to the east of the reserve to investigate the extent of park–people conflict. The findings showed that wild water buffalo and wild boar were major crop raiders between September and February. Large numbers of cattle were found grazing freely inside the reserve. Local people are responsible for illegal utilization of forest products, poaching and river fishing inside the reserve.
In 2005, the reserve together with the Koshi Barrage was identified as one of 27 Important Bird Areas of Nepal

Koshi tappu wild life reserve . able to see wild buffalo ,birds. wild snakes, elephant .
So Wild. You can even find wild elephants wandering around which is dangerous.
The resort is just okay. However, the prices are pure fantasy. For breakfast (two slices of toast bread, one egg, and marmalade) 25 US$ were asked, just for being a foreigner. The price for lunch was equally astronomic. The staff was unable to provide a menu card and did let us know about the slight price difference between locals and tourists.
It is not worth visiting, when the staff tries to rip one off!
Nepal has better places to offer.
Very peaceful wildlife refuge with good access road for normal cars. Wildlife visible are plenty of wild buffaloes, deer, Gharial, etc.
Best place for bird watching in nepal
Incredible place. Very beautiful but warm, very warm. Best for bird watchers. :)

I don't know why tourists don't go to this amazing place. Easy to reach. The most unique national park in Nepal in terms of bio diversity.
Best tourism place in Eastern Region of Nepal.
