Chinji National Park

Chinji National Park is a protected area in Chakwal District that showcases semi-arid landscapes with sandstone formations and scattered salt deposits. The terrain features rolling hills, rocky outcrops, and varied geological structures across its expanse.

The area was protected in 1987 and preserves traces of Hindu-Buddhist settlements that existed here in ancient times. The park also contains remnants from the British colonial period that reveal how outside influences shaped the region.

The park serves as a place where visitors encounter the semi-arid landscape and its role in the region. People come here to see how wildlife and natural habitats shape the character of this part of Pakistan.

Visitors will find an observation tower, lodging options, and parking areas to help explore the terrain. Small shops offer refreshments, so you can get supplies during your visit.

The park is home to the urial, a threatened mountain sheep that has become increasingly rare in the region. Other uncommon animals like Bengal foxes and pangolins also inhabit this protected area.
