Gurez National Park, National park in Neelum District, Pakistan

Gurez National Park extends across 528 square kilometers of mountainous terrain with elevations ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 meters above sea level.

The national park territory encompasses sections of an ancient Silk Route segment that connected Kashmir Valley with Gilgit through mountain passages.

Local Shina language speakers refer to the valley as Gorai, while the park contains traces of Dardistan heritage from Sharda Peeth to Minimarg.

Access remains restricted from December through March due to heavy snowfall, with optimal visiting conditions occurring between May and October.

The park maintains protection status for 19 mammal species including snow leopards, Himalayan brown bears, and the endangered musk deer population.
