Snow Leopard Haven, Manang
Snow Leopard Haven is an education-based lodge and BIOCOS Nepal satellite field base. Visitors learn about snow leopard ecology, camera trapping, local stewardship and high-mountain conservation from scouts and researchers. Snow leopards remain wild, and sightings are never guaranteed.
Dhaulagiri Red Panda Landscape
Carefully designed forest and cultural experiences can introduce visitors to red panda habitat, ecological research and community conservation while supporting appropriate local services.
Pipar Pheasant Conservation Landscape
Birdwatching, natural-history interpretation and community participation can create local benefits while reinforcing protection of pheasants and their forest habitat.
Nepal’s Living Landscapes
Natural-history journeys connecting Chitwan, Pokhara, the Kali Gandaki Valley, Mustang and Manang demonstrate how wildlife, geology, culture and conservation change from the lowlands to the high Himalayas.
