A very good trek for bird watchers as it harbours one
of the few known viable population of "Western Tragopan",
along with more than 200 species of birds and over 30
species of mammals. The Park may invoke awe in visitors.
Or perhaps pride, exhilaration, reverence, inspiration.
No two places leave the same imprint, so what do such
diverse places have in common ? They bring an awareness
of what it is to be in the Great Himalayan National Park.
