Ayubia National Park

Ayubia National Park extends across 3,312 hectares in the Himalayan foothills, with deep valleys, pine forests, and mountain streams at elevations between 2,100 and 2,900 meters.

The area was designated as a national park in 1984 to protect the regional ecosystem, connecting four hill stations: Ghora Dhaka, Changla Gali, Khanspur, and Khairagali.

The park represents traditional Hazara culture, where local communities maintain agricultural practices in designated zones while preserving natural resources through sustainable methods.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails throughout the park, with the most frequent route starting from Dunga Gali leading to the Mukshpuri peak at 2,800 meters.

The park contains a network of 150-year-old tunnels constructed during British colonial rule, connecting different hill stations through underground passages.
