Guide To Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary In Assam

The humongous one-horned Indian rhinoceros is one of the most exquisite creatures on earth, and one place where you can find them in great numbers is the Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary, a lesser-known jewel tucked away in the northeastern state of Assam. The Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary is an equally humongous park that covers an area of about 38.8 sq kms. It is also frequently referred to as Little Kaziranga owing to its abundant wildlife and unbridled rhino population. Nestled about 50 kms from Guwahati, Pobitora qualifies with flying colours as a must-see destination for a gamut of travellers including adventure-seekers, nature enthusiasts, wildlife photographers, birders and more. While slightly eclipsed by Kaziranga National Park, Pobitora's smaller size allows for ample close-up encounters with wildlife, where guests can likely see rhinos and other species in their native environment.
