Kaziranga Eastern Range (Agaratoli)
Agaratoli Range
The eastern safari zone, dense with lakes and wetlands, and the best place to see pelicans, storks and other waterbirds.
The Eastern Agaratoli Range lies about 4 kilometres northeast of Bokakhat and sees relatively few visitors. The route passes several lakes and wetlands, including Sohola Lake, making it the first choice for birdwatchers. In winter you can see spot-billed pelicans, black-necked storks, grey-headed fish eagles and large numbers of migratory waterbirds, and rhinos, wild water buffalo and elephants also roam here. Jeeps must be booked at the entrance or in Kohora. Morning light is best. Bring a telephoto lens and binoculars for birdwatching.
