3 days tour from Islamabad to Rawalakot AJK. Its great to see beauty of Kashmir in spring season. On 5th April 2013 (first day) at 10:00am we departed from Islamabad and arrived Rawalakot at 4:00pm. The distance is about 120km. The route we adopted was Islamabad--Kahuta--along Azad Pattan Road--Panjar---(Pakistan)Azad Pattan Bridge(Kashmir)---along Rawalakot Road--Rawalakot. We stayed at Dream Land guest house in front of Qaumi Bachat Scheme Markaz located at main bazar road.
On 6th April 2013, we visited Toli pir located 30km from Rawalakot near Khai Gala Town. The height of Toli Pir is about 8800ft above the sea level. Mountain covered with snow were main attraction for tourist. You can see the mountains of Jammu Kashmir from top of the Toli Pir as well. A shrine of Toli pir was also located at the top.
On 7th April 2013, we visited Bhanjosa Lake located 25km from Rawalakot. Half of the journey to lake was on the same route till Khai Gala Town and then diverted to Khai gala Palendri Road leads us to Chotta gala town. Scenery was awesome but unfortunately no snow was there.On the same day we returned back to Islamabad.
2 night stay cost Rs2000 per room only
Not expensive. Fast food lovers find hard to have their respective restaurant in Rawalakot because city only have Italian Pizza at Chandni Ckowk, airport road. We had deal of pizza and chicken karahi there in dinner and on next night only chicken karahi.
