Located in Kullu, the park covers an area of about 710 square kilometres (270 sq mi).[1][2] Khirganga National Park is located at an altitude of 2000 meters.[3]
Tourists are led along the trail leading from the centre of the park. From there, it is easy to spot the flora and fauna.
Khirganga National Park, in the central Himalayas, rises to 5,500 meters, with Parvati Parbat (6,632 m) as its highest peak. The park, prone to landslides and earthquakes, serves as a crucial watershed for the Parvati River.[4]
The park features sub-tropical forests (oak, maple) at lower elevations, coniferous forests (pine, deodar) at higher altitudes, and alpine meadows above the tree line.
Key species include the Himalayan black bear, snow leopard, Himalayan tahr, musk deer, and yellow-throated marten.
Over 200 bird species reside here, including the Western tragopan, Himalayan monal, and golden eagle.
