Located in the shadow of the 6888 Meters high
Siniolchu, and the 5200 Meters Lamo Anden, this is
virtually an uninhabited valley with a miniscule
population (less than 50) of Lamas, yak herdsmen,
wood cutters, cow and sheep graziers. Due to
restricted entry there is no tourist traffic.
It is the domain of glaciers, snow clad peaks,
alpine lakes, waterfalls, hot springs, bio-diverse
forests, cascading rivers and streams, and
twittering birds, The altitudinal variation ranges
between 1000 meters to 4500 meters. The lower valley
has mixed open forest with amazing biodiversity. The
variation in altitude, variety of trees and shrubs,
lack of human population and vehicular traffic
combine to make it a haven for birds, and a prime
birding site. |
