About Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary
A small sanctuary about 50 km from Guwahati with one of the highest densities of one horned rhinos in the world. A jeep safari takes about an hour or two through grassland and wetland, and rhinos are often seen close. It is a good option for a half day trip from Guwahati if Kaziranga is out of reach. The sanctuary is closed in the monsoon, so go in the cooler months.
