This is when you put on your trekking shoes, pull out your trekking stick and trudge your way up to a height of 1,400 feet to soak in a panoramic view of Kaziranga. Make your way through dirt tracks and undergrowth and get to the top and then be the master of all you survey. Breathe deep, and get close to the sky. Take your pictures. Have your fill of the world around you, and then rest in tents that have been put up on bamboo platforms for you.
On your way downhill, at about 1,000 says the altimeter on your watch, pay obeisance to the Lord at Shiva Bheti, where He sits, a solemn rock that emanates from within it the spirit of a God who sits in meditation on Mount Kailash. Watch the pandit make his offerings to Nature and its Sentinel. Realise that even in a forest, you are well looked after.
