Introduction

Established in 1982 and expanded in 1996 to about 1,795 hectares, this sanctuary near the Indian Tripura border in Chunarughat holds 37 mammal species, 167 bird species and 638 plant species — including capped langur, hoolock gibbon and hill myna. It comprises four beats of the Kalenga Forest Range: Kalenga, Rema, Chanbari and Rashidpur.

Suggested time: 1 day

How to get there

Go from Habiganj town to Chunarughat, then by local vehicle to the Kalenga Forest Range office; though near Satchari, it lies further east towards the border. Confirm Forest Department permission/guide requirements at the entry point.
