Siliguri, Sep 26: In the coming Puja season, a new safari route through the dense forests of the Sukna inside the Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary will be opened for tourists.

The North-Bengal Guide Association, jointly with the State Tourism Department, has decided to take a group of 20 physically challenged children on tour of the new route as part of the World Tourism Day`s celebrations.

The trail will start at Sukna and end 5 km away at Golaghat, providing a great opportunity to visitors interested in nature and wildlife.

The trek is aimed at promoting safari among tourists from cities to hang out during the weekends. A single-day tour package including a visit to a tea garden for first-hand experience of the tea making process will also be provided.

It seems that the State Tourism Department is all set up to market the Sukna forest as a popular weekend getaway for tourists - locals, and visitors from afar as well.
