Gorumara National Park is one of the most tourist destinations
of North-East India, a National Park situated at Foothills of Himalaya at North
Bengal in Terai region. It is a med-sized park with forests and grassland,
declared as Wildlife Sanctuary in 1949 by Govt. of India. After that in the
year of 1994 it was declared as Nation Park, which is spared about 80 kms. The
National Park famous for its one-horned rhinoceros or Indian
rhinoceros, nearby attraction of
the park is Chapramari Forest and Jaldapara National Park.
You will
get plenty of information about the Gorumara National Park from Google, today I
will write a brief about Gorumara National Park safari timings, day visit entry
charges and GYPSY fare for tourist (updated on Feb 2017). You will get all
information about car rental, accommodation and homestay information in Dooars
and nearby.
One
Personal Note: If you are going to the forest just so that you
get to see animals, then don't. You might be disappointed as not necessary that
you will see animals all the time. Go there with an open mind to enjoy the
serenity, peace and beauty of the Forest.
