(2528 MT) lies a place fit for weekend picnics. It is famous
for its flora and fauna and bird watching. One can have a wide
panoramic view of Himalayas along with a view of Tarai and Bhabhar.
Kilbury is an enchanting, picture-book picnic spot. Lined by
lush oak, pine and rhododendron forests and with panoramic views
of majestic snow-capped peaks in the distance, Kilbury is perfect
to spend the day on your back doing nothing but lazily watching
the clouds float by.
Alternately, you can watch Brown Wood-Owls, Collared Grosbeaks,
White-throated Laughing Thrushes, Forktails and many other birds.
Kilbury is a well known birding route and at last count more
than 580 species of birds have been recorded in this area. It

of more comfortable lodgings than a picnic rug and a basket,
