Sreemangal tea trails and Lawachara forest is a full day in Bangladesh's tea country, mixing gentle estate walks with a forest outing in search of the western hoolock gibbon, the country's only ape. It suits nature lovers, birders and travellers who want green landscapes after the noise of Dhaka.
Your guide, Nusrat Jahan, is a keen birder, and she plans the forest walk around the light and bird activity, so timings shift with the weather. Lawachara holds Bangladesh's largest surviving gibbon population and more than two hundred recorded bird species, which makes patience well rewarded. The day also includes a glass of the famous multi-coloured tea first made in Sreemangal, and ends with time among the Khasia communities who grow betel leaf in the hills. Walk quietly, wear muted colours and stay on marked trails. May and June are the wettest months, when forest paths are at their muddiest. The guide speaks Bangla, English and Hindi.
