Geography & terrain
Sanasar lies in the Ramban district of Jammu and Kashmir at about 2,200 m, 110 km from Jammu and 120 km from Patnitop — the meadow town of the region, its camping grounds, the paragliding and the pine forests set on the Pir Panjal's ridge.
History & culture
The town's story runs with the 2000s adventure era — the meadow town of the Sanasar grounds and the 2000s-era camping life, with the town's modern role as the adventure stop of the Jammu circuit and the home of the 2,000-hectare grounds and the paragliding decks and the pine forests; the town's history of the 2010s-era ropeway plans and the shepherd life and the meadow views, gives Sanasar its meadow character.
