Abstract
Ground-based $\gamma-$ray astronomy has considerably developed during the last five years, which have attracted the attention of the wider scientific community. A brief review of ground-based $\gamma-$ray detectors is given. The basic observational techniques and constraints are discussed. The needs for future, the advantages of broadening the energy range are described.
