Gangotri NATIONAL PARK

Gangotri National Park, located at a high altitude in the North Indian state, Uttrakhand, is one of the most pristine stretches of wilderness and offers a stunning view of the Himalayan landscape, with lush coniferous forests, meadows, and glaciers.

The park falls under a biographical zone of West Himalaya, and its landscape comprises various springs, waterfalls, snowy mountain peaks, deep gorges, craggy glaciers, and high ridges. Gaumukh Glacial is of the major attractions within the national park since it is the originating place of the holy river Ganga. The region experiences a climate suitable for some rare animal species, and thus their population thrives over here. Gangotri National Park is also the connecting corridor between Kedarnath Wildlife Sanctuary and Govind National Park, allowing a smooth movement of the rare ones.

Thus, Gangotri National Park is a place where one can enjoy the very famous Gaumukh trek and also a hot destination to sight rare animals like the Snow Leopard, Blue Sheep, Black Bear, along with many other species of animals and birds who manage their living at such high altitudes.
