Panbari Reserve Forest
Tropical evergreen forest between Kohora and Bokakhat with limited visitor numbers, a hidden spot for birdwatching and looking for gibbons.
Panbari is an evergreen and semi-evergreen forest lying on the southern side of the national park, between Kohora and Bokakhat. It is a popular spot in the Kaziranga area for forest birds, including hornbills, broadbills and laughingthrushes, and you may also encounter white-browed gibbons. In recent years visitor numbers have been restricted. You must have a guide and enter during designated time slots, so it is best to arrange a visit through your hotel or a local birding guide in advance. The forest is damp, so wear long sleeves, waterproof shoes and be prepared for leeches.
