| The Nature Club from Elphinstone College, Mumbai, went here in the summer vacations.
This remote wildlife sanctuary perched at 3000m and bordering a cold desert, was given its official status only in 1984. Since it has very low tourist influx and almost no population within the park, the conditions are absolutely pristine.
