Tours to Kaziranga

Kaziranga National ParkKaziranga National Park is spread over an area of 430 sq km on the south bank of the Brahmaputra River in Assam. Kaziranga was declared a reserve forest as early as in 1908 AD and was officially closed for shooting. It was made a wildlife sanctuary in 1950 and designated a national park by 1974. The park is surrounded by hills of Barail and Karbi Anglong. There are plans to extend the boundaries of the park to include the Brahmaputra River in the north and a part of the Mikir hill ranges in the south.

Kaziranga National Park is especially known for single horned Indian rhinos or Rhinoceros Unicornis. There were only a few dozen rhinos when the area became reserved and now it boasts of a population of more than thousand of them. Although the rhinos are still endangered yet they are protected here. You may easily spot a rhino or two on tours to Kaziranga. The park was listed as the World Heritage Site in 1985.

You may also find avian population in the park, which increases considerably in the winter due to migrating birds.
