Burhan Wilderness Camps
Immersive Wilderness in a Living Conservation Corridor
Burhan Wilderness Camp is a unique safari experience set within the Khata Wildlife Corridor on the edge of Bardiya National Park. Positioned between two channels of the Karnali River, it offers a rare opportunity to experience wildlife in one of Nepal’s most active and important conservation landscapes.
The camp has also received international attention, including hosting the BBC Natural History Unit during the filming of the documentary Tiger Island, with the crew staying and filming on location. The wider Bardiya region has also been recognised by TIME as one of the “World’s Greatest Places 2024” for its pioneering conservation approach.
With its remote setting and strong conservation focus, Burhan offers an authentic wilderness experience for travellers seeking to explore Bardiya beyond the traditional safari routes.

Good to Know
Burhan Wilderness Camp is located in a remote part of Bardiya National Park, where wildlife movements and natural conditions shape the rhythm of each day. Facilities are comfortable but simple, in keeping with the camp’s focus on nature, conservation and authentic wilderness experiences.
Access to the camp involves travel through rural landscapes, and guests should be prepared for a more adventurous and immersive safari experience than in more developed park regions.
