Himalayan National Park

Great Himalayan National Park in the Kullu region of Himachal Pradesh is characterized by high alpine peaks, alpine meadows and riverine forests.

The 90.540 ha property includes the upper mountain glacial and snow melt water source origins of several rivers, and the catchments of water supplies that are vital to millions of downstream users.

It is part of the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot and includes 25 forest types along with a rich assemblage of fauna species, several of which are threatened.

This gives the site outstanding significance for biodiversity conservation.

 Thanks to Rizwan.
