Valmiki forests present memorable experience for nature lovers. Some of the must visit locations include:

TOURIST PLACES IN VALMIKI TIGER RESERVE

1. Bheriyari Watch tower

This wooden watch tower is situated in the Bheriyari Grassland where herds of herbivores can be seen in their natural habitat. Most Suitable site for peep through watch tower & bird watching also.

2. Bhikhna Thori

Located on Indo-Nepal border it is the north-eastern end of the sanctuary. From here through Nepal there is a way right up to Tibbet. Historically it was the resting place (thaur) for Buddhist monks and hence its name “Bhiktchuk thaur” or “Bhikhna thori”. King George Vth while passing by, took a rest here. This is famous picnic spot, now a day.

3. Boating in Rohua Nala (Tributary of Gandak river)

This site is located in Madanpur range. This range is unique in the sense as it has diversity in the forms of wetland, swamps & mixed forest along with canebrakes. It is the potential site for Rhinoceros sighting, visiting here from Chitwan Reserve forest, of Nepal. This area is also designated as Important Bird Area (IBA) by the Indian Bird Conservation Network.
