Nameri National Park

Nameri National Park Assam

Nestled at the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas and teeming with an amazing variety of flora and fauna, the Nameri National Park deserves to be a part of your tour to Assam. Covering an area of 200 sq km, the Nameri National Park shares its northern boundary with the Pakhui Wildlife Sanctuary of Arunachal Pradesh and is undisputedly one of the most scenic sanctuaries in the country.

The vegetative cover of the Nameri National Park includes semi evergreen moist deciduous forests. There are areas within the sanctuary which are thickly overgrown with cane and bamboo ferns. After passing through the rugged topography of Arunachal Pradesh, the River Jia Bhoroli enters the plains of Assam at Bhalukpung and then passes through the Nameri National Park dividing it into two. Along the banks of this river, there are narrow strips of open grassland as well. But the sight which is sure to fascinate you is the plethora of colorful orchids. This species of Flora in Nameri National Park is a treat to the eye.

One of the prime attractions of the Nameri National Park is its herds of elephants. However it is not just the picturesque landscape or the diverse wild life which allures people to the Nameri Tiger Reserve.

The river is famous for the Golden Mahseer rightfully referred to as the “Tiger of the Indian Rivers” and is any angler’s delight.
