The three parallel ranges of Himalayas are the Greater Himalayas or Himadri, Lesser Himalayas or Himachal and Shivaliks. ... The outermost range is called Shivaliks and its height is only 900 to 1000 metres, as it is mainly formed from the deposits of the Himalayan Rivers flowing down from the greater heights.
