From Airport: After landing, the most convenient way to reach the park is by hiring a pre-paid taxi or a private cab service directly from the airport terminal. The journey typically takes around 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the traffic conditions. Many hotels in Silchar also offer airport transfer services.

Railway Station: The closest and most important railway station is Silchar Railway Station (SCL). The station is well-connected to major cities like Guwahati and Kolkata via key trains.

From Station: The park is located a short distance from the railway station (around 3-4 KMS). You can easily hire an auto-rickshaw, a cycle-rickshaw, or a local taxi from the station exit to reach Gandhibag Park in about 15 minutes.

By Road (Inter-City):

Bus: Silchar is a crucial hub in South Assam and is well-connected by National Highways, especially NH-6 and NH-37. Regular government and private bus services connect Silchar with major cities and towns in Assam, Meghalaya (Shillong), and Tripura (Agartala).
