Nature Safaris In Kashmir!


 

Srinagar: In a bid to revive tourism in Kashmir, the state's tourism department has introduced nature safaris, trekking and nature camps, which are becoming a major attraction among the tourists.

Ever since the valley was gripped by insurgency, the once hot destination amongst tourists has been losing its charm. But the introduction of the nature safaris seems to be rejuvenating tourism in the valley.

Nature safaris and nature camps are innovative measures to explore the abundance of adventure in the valley.

The tourists are thronging the Dachigam National Park in Srinagar as part of the nature safaris. The park spread over an area of 140 sq. kms which is a habitat to the Kashmir stag (Hangul), black and brown bear, musk deer, leopards and large variety of migratory birds.
