The protected area is part of the Sacred Himalayan Landscape, a transboundary conservation initiative linking protected areas across Nepal and the Tibet Autonomous Region. Twenty-six village communities reside within the park boundaries, maintaining traditional livelihoods amid one of Nepal's most ecologically diverse mountain environments.
