The Kohora (Central) Range is expected to reopen in the second week of October, while the popular Elephant Safari will resume from November 1.
Authorities said the reopening is planned to coincide with Durga Puja festivities, offering tourists a chance to enjoy the park’s rich biodiversity and scenic beauty.

Kaziranga, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its population of the one-horned rhinoceros, remains closed during the monsoon months due to heavy rains and floods. The reopening marks the start of the new tourist season in Assam.
