Kaziranga Western Range (Elephant Safari Point) - National park in Bagori - Nagaon, India

Took an early morning gyspy safari to the western range Bagori. This range is famous for its elephant safari and met a lot of tourists riding elephants. It was a delightful sight to see a procession of more than twenty elephants. We also got to see many of the legends of Kaziranga up close.Since the area of the west range is relatively smaller than that of the central range, the animals graze quite close to the gypsy path and are in full visibility. We saw herds of deer, elephants, water buffaloes and even one horn rhinos. Our driver cum tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and knew to pick just the right spots to give us an enriching experience of the forest. We were also lucky to catch an exciting interaction between two rhinos (mating). Our driver also gave us a pitstop to the nearby dhaba (baleswar dhaba) that served amazing mutton curry and roti.

This is a must go destination for all nature lovers. The elephant ride starts at around 6:00am and advance booking is required. Great Haven for nature photography of all types. The Western Range remains open from mid-Oct to March each year and there are a number of good staying options in the vicinity but needs advance booking, mostly as it is quite heavily subscribed...

Early morning ride on elephant to watch rhino and birds. There are 2 timings options in early morning. Charges around Rs.1100 per person. Animal lovers may not like the idea.

The Bagori gate. Reached at 5.30am for a 6.00 am elephant safari. Sizeable crowd. Ticketing etc was smooth. The boarding and disembarking from elephants could be handled better rather than crowding on the platform. The short elephant ride was excellent and saw one horned rhinos up close. Highly recommended

Excellent sitting arrangement on elephent. One need not have any apprehensions about how elephant ride. Totally safe. You can see Rino from very near.

Worth experiencing. This is like the only National Park safari where there is a chance to see a Greater One-Horned Rhinoceros . They are majestic to watch. Go visit if you like visiting zoo and if you are in Assam. You get to see elephants and also there is elephant safari during few seasons. There are few amazing birds. The jeep takes you on road and it takes total of 3 hours or so including travel from and to hotel. The jeep safari is decent good. Other than rhinoceros m, there is nothing appealing or exciting here.

Located 221 kms from Guwahati it is the best place to witness one horned Rhino(pretty rare). It also has wide number of Sambar deer, Wild elephants and Birds. The jeep for safari is good. Must visit place for everyone.

The elephant safari was very good, but felt very bad for those elephants being beaten by their Mahuts. Saw many one horned rhinos from up close.. Spotted a few wild buffaloes and hog deer as well..
