PONG DAM KANGRA

Pong Dam

  1. Pong wetland, situated in the Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh, is one of the largest man-made wetlands of the Northern India formed by the construction of Pong Dam during 1974 across the Beas River. This wetland is the first major wetland which potentially offers a transitory resting reserve for the migratory birds coming from the Trans Himalayan zone in the winter season when the wetlands in the Europe and North and Central Asia become frozen due to onset of winters. Flocks of waterfowls that breed in these areas in summer undertake migration to Pong to spend winter in more congenial climatic conditions every year during the winter season from October to March. Pong wetland earned the distinction of being selected as an international RAMSAR site in the year 2002. This is the first wetland of the state to have been given the global arm of protection.
