The park ranges in elevation from 1800 meter to 4039 meter. The viewpoints from Chuchmare Peak ( 4039 meter) and Murma top (3700 m) are amazing. From here you look down on Rara Lake and you will see the white peaks of the Himalaya range. If you are lucky you can spot wildlife such as musk deer, the Himalayan black bear and the rare red panda. A visit to the park can also be combined with a trekking or jeep drive through the enchanting Sinja Valley.
The main entrance of the park is 32 km north of Jumla. There are various ways to reach the park and Rara Lake.
- By air from Nepalgunj to Jumla and from there a 3-4 days walk or a 1 day jeep ride.
- By air from Nepalgunj to Talcha airport and from there a 3 hours walk or horse ride.
- The more adventurous route by road. A two days trip by jeep or motorbike starting from Bardia Homestay
