Pakke Tiger Reserve is one of the finest yet one of the least visited tourist destinations in India. Not very far from the usual Kaziranga-Nameri-Eaglenest-Tawang route is the option of visiting PTR. PTR is a two and a half hour drive from Kaziranga National Park and an hour and a half away from Nameri National Park.
Once you reach PTR, you are guaranteed of a wilderness experience. You will most likely encounter wild elephants along the way, sometimes the occasional charge by a makhna (tuskless male elephant). Also commonly seen along trails are four species of squirrels, capped langurs and Assamese macaques. Along the banks of the Khari, Upper Dikorai and Pakke Rivers, there are plenty of signs of riverine species such as the crab-eating mongoose, at least two species of otters and regular sightings of the Assam roof turtle.
PTR is a paradise for viewing and photographing four species of hornbills. The experience of watching hornbills flying to their roost is a must for every wildlife enthusiast. Every evening, just before sunset you will be lucky to witness more than a hundred hornbills flying above the horizon to their roost sites. In addition, PTR harbors other specialties such as the ibisbill and the White-winged wood duck. Nestled among hills and criss crossed by rivers, Khari is only 13 km away from the park headquarters at Seijosa. white-winged wood ducks are often sighted in Khari Lake, which is a 10 km trek from Khari Beat.
