Razparyin Sanctuary
<p>The Razparyin Sanctuary, with an approximate area of 48 sq. km., is a Protected Area that falls on the Daksum-Inthan road. This sanctuary is situated between Kindraz (3,815 m.) and Hamgur (3,897 m.) on the east and Khairmandu (4,222 m.) and Hoksar (4,299 m.) on the west. At higher elevations, birch and pine forests offer an ideal habitat for black and brown bears, leopards as well as the elusive serow, goral and hangul. A trail from Razparyin leads into the Phambar valley in Kishtwar. Curiously, a sheep-breeding farm can be found in the sanctuary, one of the largest such government-owned farms in the region.</p>
