Dehing Patkai National Park is a protected rainforest area in Assam, India, known for its tropical lowland forest and biodiversity. It is part of a larger complex of forested habitats in eastern Assam.

The area was long recognised for its forest value and wildlife; it has been subject to conservation measures and protected-area designations in recent decades to conserve remaining lowland rainforest. Conservation efforts focus on habitat protection and managing human pressures.

The park lies in eastern Assam, in the upper Brahmaputra valley region, within reach of regional towns in Dibrugarh and Tinsukia districts. The landscape is lowland riverine forest and wetland mosaic.

• Lowland rainforest and biodiversity: Represents one of the few remaining tracts of lowland tropical rainforest in Assam and is recognised for high biodiversity, including populations of Asian elephant and other large mammals.

The nearest major towns are Dibrugarh and Tinsukia; from there travellers typically arrange road transport and guides to park entry points. Regional airports serve Dibrugarh with onward road connections to the park.

• Dehing Patkai spans dense rainforest and remote terrain - guided jungle treks are recommended for safety and interpretation.
• The region is best explored during the dry season; wet-season trails can be treacherous and some areas may be closed.
