Ranging from an altitude of 1,300 meters to 6,315 meters the sanctuary is the home of the rare Himalayan snow leopard, the Himalayan black bear, the musk deer, the Monal and the Khaleej pheasant.
The trek to Har Ki Doon takes one through the unique villages of the Jaunsar - Bhawar which as per mythology and local customs are the home of the descendents of the Pandavas (Ref: Mahabharata). The system of polyandry is still followed by the people of this area. This area is also famous for the legendary wax palace (the "Lakhmandal" built by the Kauravas with the idea of burning their cousins the pandavas in it. Ref: Mahabharata).
