Kishtwar National Park lies about 40 kilometers from Kishtwar town in Kishtwar district, Jammu and Kashmir, India, bounded by the Rinnay river to the north, the Kibar Nala catchment to the south, the main divide of the Great Himalaya to the east and the Marwah river to the west, which drains into the Chenab below Kishtwar town. Established on February 4 1981 across about 2190 square kilometers at altitudes from 1700 to 4800 meters, its glacial valleys and silver fir and spruce forest give way to alpine pasture that shelters the Himalayan snowcock and the brown bear.
