Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve, Uttarakhand Edmund Hillary, in his autobiography said, “Nanda Devi Sanctuary is God-gifted wilderness-India’s-training ground for adventure” and indeed it is. One of the most picturesque biosphere reserves in the country, Nanda Devi Biosphere Reserve is located in the equally picturesque state of Uttarakhand. Also, listed in the UNESCO World’s Heritage Site, it is one of the best national parks in India. The reserve offers splendid view of the peaks of Trishul, Dunagiri and Nanda Devi, which acts like the adrenaline booster. It remains partially opened for the visitors with the park authorizing only five visitors in one group and visit of no more than two groups in a day. Boasting greatly of flora and fauna, Nanda Devi Reserve is definitely a place for those seeking something new and refreshing.
