The
Deoasai plain (4000 m), a vast high altitude
plateau covering an area of over 400 square
km, south and west of Skardu, borders on Indian
Kashmir. In Balti, the region is known as “Bhear
Sar” means place of flowers. Nowhere lower
than 4000 m, this uninhabited alpine grassland
has numerous clear streams with unusual snow
trout, a large brown bear population and multitude
of golden marmots. Deosai is surprisingly rich
in plants and animals, bursting into life during
the brief spring and summer months. The plateau
is home to the Himalayan Brown Bear, unique
to this part of the world. Other mammals are found
on Deosai included Tibetan Wolf, Tibetan Red
Fox, Himalayan Ibex etc. Deosai Plateau offers
several opportunities for trekking and easily
accessible from Skardu.
