JABARKHET NATURE RESERVE

Mussoorie Birding

The forests of Jabarkhet and the surrounding areas have immense ecological values both for the biodiversity they harbor and the services they provide. As one of the few remaining natural forest patches near Mussoorie with connections to the Sivalik Hills and the middle Himalayas, they form an important wildlife corridor. They also sustain a critical water source that feeds into the Kolti Nala, which is the source of water supply for a large section of Mussoorie residents.
