Arunachal Pradesh National Parks:

Arunachal Pradesh, located in the northeastern region of India, is a land of incredible biodiversity and natural beauty. It boasts pristine forests, snow-capped mountains, and rich wildlife, making it a paradise for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. The state is home to several national parks, each showcasing a unique ecosystem and housing a variety of flora and fauna. Arunachal Pradesh’s national parks play a critical role in the conservation of endangered species and in promoting eco-tourism.

1. Namdapha National Park

Namdapha National Park, the largest national park in Arunachal Pradesh, is also the third-largest in India. Spanning an area of 1,985 square kilometers, it is a biodiversity hotspot located in the Changlang district near the Indo-Myanmar border. Namdapha is known for its dense rainforests, alpine meadows, and diverse wildlife.

One of the park's most significant features is that it is the only park in the world where four big cat species—tiger, leopard, snow leopard, and clouded leopard—coexist. Besides these apex predators, the park is also home to red pandas, Himalayan black bears, and various species of deer. The birdlife in Namdapha is equally impressive, with species like the white-winged wood duck, hornbills, and many migratory birds flocking to its rich habitat.

Due to its rugged terrain and difficult accessibility, Namdapha offers a unique, off-the-beaten-path experience for adventurous travelers and trekking enthusiasts.

2. Mouling National Park

Located in the Upper Siang district, Mouling National Park covers an area of around 483 square kilometers. The park, named after the peak "Mouling" which means “red poison” in the local Adi language, is known for its scenic landscapes and diverse wildlife. The park's rugged hills, steep gorges, and dense forests create a unique ecosystem where a wide range of species thrive.

Mouling National Park is home to rare species like the red panda, the serow (a goat-antelope species), and the takin, along with Bengal tigers, leopards, and wild boars. Bird watchers will be thrilled by the sight of hornbills, tragopans, and many other exotic bird species. The park is also rich in flora, featuring temperate forests of oaks, rhododendrons, and conifers, making it a beautiful destination for trekking and nature walks.

3. Sessa Orchid Sanctuary

Although not a traditional national park, the Sessa Orchid Sanctuary is a significant conservation area in Arunachal Pradesh. Spanning 100 square kilometers in the West Kameng district, the sanctuary is home to over 200 species of orchids, many of which are rare and endangered. Arunachal Pradesh is often referred to as the "Orchid State of India," and Sessa plays a crucial role in preserving these beautiful flowers.

The sanctuary is also home to wildlife like leopards, red pandas, and numerous bird species, making it an excellent destination for both botanists and wildlife lovers. The lush green forests and the sanctuary's biodiversity make it a serene and visually stunning place to visit.

4. Pakke Tiger Reserve

Pakke Tiger Reserve, also known as Pakhui Tiger Reserve, is located in the East Kameng district. Covering an area of 861 square kilometers, it is one of the most well-managed tiger reserves in the country. The park is known for its efforts in wildlife conservation and is a critical habitat for Bengal tigers, Asian elephants, and leopards.

Pakke is also famous for its hornbill population, with several species of hornbills, including the great hornbill, found here. The lush forests, rivers, and rich biodiversity make it an ideal destination for wildlife safaris and nature photography. Pakke has won numerous awards for its conservation initiatives and is a model for community-based wildlife conservation in India.

5. Mehao Wildlife Sanctuary

Although not classified as a national park, Mehao Wildlife Sanctuary is another prominent conservation area located in Lower Dibang Valley. Covering an area of 282 square kilometers, the sanctuary is famous for Mehao Lake, a pristine waterbody set against a backdrop of dense forests and mountains.

The sanctuary is home to a wide range of wildlife, including leopards, tigers, and the Himalayan black bear. The scenic beauty and the biodiversity of Mehao make it a great destination for eco-tourism and trekking. more read.
