Camping & Trekking Sites
A number of ancient trails used of Bhutan’s earliest ancestors
The park developed two trekking trails designed for the winter month:
i. The Nabji-Korphu trail (6 days and 5 nights trek)
ii. Adha-rukha trail (5 days and 4 nights trek)
Risk & Threats
Habitat fragmentation & degradation from developmental infrastructure habitat
It is predicted that impending developmental activities such as construction of roads, phone towers, and hydropower projects will lead to harming the park’s habitats and wildlife population
Human-wildlife conflict poaching
The main species targeted for poaching include Musk deer, Snow leopard, and Red panda
Unregulated cattle grazing
JSWNP serves as a grazing ground for numerous herds of cattle from the adjoining areas of the park. There have been many instances of over-grazing
Climate change
It is expected that the current scenario of climate change will lead to habitat loss in the park.
The lack of human and financial resources is a major constraint to address these threats
