Karnali Lodge – Bardia

Quiet jungle lodge beside Bardia National Park.

Karnali Lodge sits just outside Bardia National Park, in one of Nepal’s richest tiger and wildlife corridors. The feel is deliberately low-key: few rooms, soft natural tones, shaded gardens, and a pool that breaks the afternoon heat. Architecture relies on local materials and simple lines, featuring handmade furniture and uncluttered spaces that draw attention to the forest edge rather than the decor itself.
