NCERT: "Movement in search of pastures is undertaken either over vast horizontal distances or vertically from one elevation to another in the mountainous regions.  The process of migration from plain areas to pastures on mountains during summers and again from mountain pastures to plain areas during winters is known as transhumance.  In mountain regions, such as Himalayas, Gujjars, Bakarwals, Gaddis and Bhotiyas migrate from plains to the mountains in summers and to the plains from the high altitude pastures in winters. Similarly, in the tundra regions, the nomadic herders move from south to north in
summers and from north to south in winters".
