Himalayan National Park, Himachal

The
Great Himalayan National Park : The largest protected area in Himachal Pradesh,
the park is carved out of the splendid mountain terrain of the Kullu district.
Rich coniferous forests, alpine meadows carpeted with flowers, snow-capped
peaks and glaciers provide a breathtaking panorama. The secluded Sainj and
Tirthan valleys harbour a variety of animals common to this area - wild
mountain goats like the bharal, goral, and serow, the brown bear and predators
like the leopard and the rarely seen snow leopard.
Varieties of colourful pheasants -monal, khalij cheer, tragopan and other
Himalayan birds are part of its rich avian population. Trekking through
the Park to Rakte Sar, the origin of the Sainj River, brings in the added
pleasure of seeing wildlife in this spectacular natural environment.
