PAKHNI WILDLIFE SANCTUARY

PAKHNI WILDLIFE SANCTUARY In the picturesque East Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh, the Pakhni Wildlife Sanctuary spreads over the rolling Dafla Hills covering an area of 862 sq kms of mixed deciduous forests. At places, the forest is so dense that even at the peak of the day light does not reach the ground resulting in heavy undergrowth. Elephant, Tiger, Leopard, Sloth Bear, Slow Loris and a wide variety of colourful birds constitute the population of the sanctuary. Strategically placed watchtowers within the sanctuary make game watching easy. Accessibility : The Park is approached by road, which is 65kms away from Tejpur in Assam. Accommodation : Forest Rest Houses are available for stay inside the sanctuary. Season : November to March.
