BENOG WLS
Mussorie Range, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India
A part of the Rajaji National Park, the Benog Wildlife Sanctuary is located around 11 KM from the Library End Road and is amongst one of the most visited attractions of this gorgeous hilltown. Famous for its almost-extinct mountain quails, deer, leopards and red-billed blue magpie, the Wildlife Sanctuary is well known to house rare species of birds and offers an excellent trail of pine-clad slopes surrounded by Himalayan peaks for a refreshing walk. It is an ideal site for bird watching and capturing gorgeous views of the surrounding Chaukhamba and Bandarpunch Peaks. Apart from housing the fir and pine trees, the Benog Wildlife Sanctuary also hides some medicinal plants. Also known as Vinog Mountain Quail Sanctuary, it is spread across 339 hectares. The abundant wildlife paired with stunning views of the enveloping scenic vistas makes Benog Wildlife Sanctuary a must visit, especially for the nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts.
