Indian regions are rich in bird life with over 1200 species found here due to the diverse habitats and climate. Bird watching is a way of not only learning about birds, but a channel for study of the natural world as a whole. The immense variety of bird life in this region and the large size and colourful plumage of many species, makes it an exciting prospect. Requiring no special equipment except for binoculars, and a keen eye, bird watching makes for an exciting and learning holiday.

Mountain Trails uses trained ornithologists to guide you in spotting brilliant and unusual species in North India in the Himalayas, Rajasthan, and in the lakes and reservoirs in Karnataka in South India or even Orissa on the East coast of India.
