Cruise on River Sangu

One highly admired activity here is a boat trip in a sampan a double oared boat with a blunt aft and a flat bottom or a regular boat down the river sangu. the trip can vary from a 1-hour trip, including a stop-over to take tea, to a whole day cruise including stop-overs to have food.you will find people working on river with bamboos. the river is not very deep in the dry season. many times your boat might get stuck with the soil under the river.

Take a Guided Tour

The only available regular guided tour package, offered by bengal tours & guide tours, takes tourists through buddha dhatu jadi, meghla, shoilo propat, raj vihar and ujanipara vihar, two tribal villages, chimbuk hill and a couple of more sites. an irregular guided tour package by bangladesh parjatan corporation takes tourisst to nilachal and meghla, the artificially created government owned "tourist attractions" generally shunned by serious travelers.

hiking

A hike to either Keokaradong 883 m or Tahjindong 967 m, the two tallest peak is an exhilarating experience. On the side of both the peaks reside the remotest tribes-people of Bangladesh - the Khumi and the Kuki. Boga Lake, one of the two highest lakes in Bangladesh lie directly on the trek, while the other one, the Raikhiang Lake lies only a little off the way.
