About Har Us Nuur National Park
Khar Us Nuur National Park (Mongolian: Хар Ус нуурын байгалийн цогцолборт газар, romanized: Khar Us nuuriin baigaliin cogcolbort gazar) is a national park in Khovd Province, Mongolia. It covers a chain of three large lakes in the Great Lakes Basin of western Mongolia. The lakes, Khar-Us Nuur, Khar Lake and Dörgön Lake are bordered by marshes and reed-beds that are an important breeding sport for birds, over 200 species of which have been identified in the park. Mount Jargalant is on the southern shore of Khar-Us. This park is distinct from Khyargas Nuur National Park, another large lake in the region, but 60 km to the north.
