Introducing Western Terai
The Mahendra Hwy runs west from Butwal to meet the Indian border at Mahendranagar, passing through one of the least developed parts of Nepal. Few travellers pass through the area and fewer still stop to investigate its little-visited national parks. Unfortunately, western Nepal is also the heartland of the Maoist insurgency. Bridges, telephone exchanges, government offices and army bases have been attacked on numerous occasions and it's important to check the security situation before planning any trips through this area.
