The
Himalayan wilderness hasn't remained untouched by the cruel hands of
mankind. Still with the efforts of the local population and the government
the vistas of these ranges are again thriving with a beautiful natural
world. Of all the many sanctuaries in the state Dachigam is the best
known. While visiting this national park, then one thing that'll catch
anyone's eye is the Hangul or red Deer, roaming amidst forests of Silver
Birch and Conifer. The Hemis High Altitude Park includes the catchments of
two valleys, which drain into the river and contains several camping
sites. Kishtwar High Altitude National Park in Jammu
is interesting for the marked variations in topography and vegetation that
occur over here.
