Baokhungri Hill

The Baokhungri Hills come under the Chakrashila Wildlife Sanctuary in the Kokrajhar district. The Sanctuary lies in both Kokrajhar and Dhubri districts. It’s famous for endangered Golden Langur, and sometimes, if you are lucky enough, you’ll get to see many of them. Golden Langur is the mascot of Bodoland (Officially BTR).

Baokhungri Hill Trekking

The festival’s main attraction: Baokhungri’s hill-trekking activity, was unknown to many people. It spread to the masses only after the BTC govt officially started celebrating the Baukhungri festival in 2013 onwards. 

Before that, since immemorial, the local people (especially the Bodo people) in an unorganized manner have been thronging and climbing the Baokhungri hill. But now, after the start of the Baukhungri festival, lakhs of people, irrespective of caste, creed, and religion, take part in the celebration and climb the Baokhungri peak with a festivity mood for welcoming the Bwisagu festival.
