Kaziranga National Park Reopens for the 2024-25 Season After Monsoon Break

Kaziranga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to the largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses is set to reopen for visitors on October 1, 2024. The national park was closed for tourist activities like jeep safaris and elephant safaris during the monsoon season, which typically brings heavy rainfall and flooding to the Brahmaputra floodplains, where the renowned national park is situated. As the waters recede, the landscape is refreshed, making October an ideal time to experience Kaziranga’s rejuvenated wildlife and lush surroundings.

Tourists can once again embark on the thrilling jeep safaris, which are one of the main attractions of the park. These safaris offer the chance to witness not only the famous one-horned rhinos but also tigers, elephants, wild buffalo, and a rich variety of bird species. Kaziranga National Park’s reopening is anticipated to draw wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers from across the globe, eager to explore its diverse ecosystems.

Kaziranga’s reopening also signals the start of the peak tourist season, which runs through the winter months when the weather is cool and wildlife sightings are frequent. The forest authorities have emphasized the importance of sustainable tourism practices to ensure the protection of Kaziranga’s delicate environment and wildlife.

With the monsoon behind and the national park teeming with life, visitors can look forward to an unforgettable experience and book their safaris in advance. The combination of post-monsoon greenery and abundant wildlife makes this season perfect for safari adventures.
