Although the Terai can be cool during the winter, it can be
stiflingly hot during the summer months. If you are headed
there in winter, bring along a sweater of jacket. Summer
months require cool clothes , good walking shoes, shady hat
and sunscreen . make sure your clothes are in colors like
brown and green that help you blend into the background .
Carry along some mosquito repellant, anti- diarrhea tablets
and anti-histamines. Meanwhile, along with photo equipment,
a pair of binoculars will prove invaluable. If you are
closer to the mon –soon months, carry some waterproof
jackets and an extra pair of shoes. Just in Case.
The Terai jungle are also famous for leeches that appear in
the monsoon and around for a few months after. Salt of a
lighted cigarette will make them fall off, do not pull them
off as the wound may get infected. Try an insect repellant
to keep them away.
