About Kamlang Tiger Reserve and Glow Lake
A 783 sq km tiger reserve south of Wakro on the Kamlang river, contiguous with Namdapha, with the same four big cats on paper and the same problem of seeing any of them. The thing people come for is the Glow Lake trek: two to three days through wet forest and up to a lake in the hills, camping on the way, with a forest guide and porters. It is hard going and leech-ridden outside the cold months. Shut in the monsoon.
What to see and do
- Glow Lake trek, two to three days
- Contiguous with Namdapha
- Hoolock gibbon and hornbills
- Kamlang river
- Wakro entry point
Part of The Himalaya.
