Glass bridges, white water, waterfalls and birds
Bihar's wild side is new to most travellers and almost empty: a glass skywalk and zipline over a Rajgir valley, rafting on a Himalayan river at Valmikinagar, monsoon waterfalls on the Kaimur edge, a tiger reserve, and two granite-ringed lakes where 20,000 birds winter.
01 · Nalanda · 1 day, or 2 with a night in the park
Bihar's adventure hub: a 85-foot glass skywalk over the valley, a 500-metre zipline, suspension bridges and a zoo safari — then a car-free cycle or tonga ride to Ghora Katora, a horseshoe lake ringed by hills with a 70-foot Buddha at its centre.
