Saurabh Van Vihar is a nature park built on the foothills of the mighty Dhauladhars in the memory of the Kargil war hero Capt. Saurabh Kalia. It is just a few minutes’ drive from the main town of Palampur. It’s a well-designed nature park with well-defined walking trails. Water has been diverted from the nearby Neugal Khud to create an artificial lake where one can enjoy boating. There are some wonderful bird houses built inside the park to attract birds. The park is the perfect place to spend some time with nature. It has an entrance fee of INR 10.
