Satchari National Park

Satchari National Park is a protected forest area covering 243 hectares on Raghunandan hill, with mixed evergreen woodland and seven streams running through it. Tea gardens occupy the land on both its eastern and western edges.

The forest area received protected status under the Wildlife Preservation Act in 1974, then became an official national park in 2005. This recognition came after decades of existing as an informal reserve.

The Tipra people, a hill tribe, inhabit a settlement called Tipra Para within the park and continue their traditional way of life surrounded by forest. Their presence shapes how the landscape is used and occupied today.

The park has marked walking trails that guide visitors through the forest area. Getting there from Dhaka takes roughly 130 kilometers of travel by road.

The park is home to uncommon animals like western hoolock gibbons, red-headed trogons, and oriental pied hornbills. These creatures are found only in this region, making it a special destination for wildlife watchers.
