Bardia National park is situated in the mid-far western Terai, east of the Karnali River. It covers 968 square kilometers of land, the largest and most undisturbed wilderness area in the Terai. About 70 percent of the park is covered with dominantly Sal forest with a balanced mixture of grassland, savanna, and Riverine forest.

Approximately 1500 inhabitants of this valley have been resettled elsewhere. Since farming has ceased in the Babai valley, natural vegetation is regenerating, making it an area of prime habitat for wildlife. The park provides excellent habitat for endangered animals like the rhinoceros, wild elephant, tiger swamp deer, black buck, gharial crocodile, marsh mugger crocodile, and Gangetic dolphin.

Endangered birds include the Bengal florican, lesser florican, and Sarus Crane.
