Mubeen Bhai,Time is getting over, wat about today's episode?

[waseem14pk]

Mubeen Bhai what a start
To describe your photography skills all the best possible words are already used by other friends. I am starved with word's selection
I can simply say " It is at its best " :*
Isko kahtay haen "wo aye or cha ***"
You desrve much much much more appreciation

[familyoffroaders]

Many thx sir

The trip was one of lifetime best experiences.

There are 2 main problems if u r not staying in AJK or Valley Trekkers Lodges / Rest Houses.

1- Hotels: Very poor quality hotels throughout Neelum Valley and not suitable for families.
2- Food: Very limited choices and only local flavoured dishes which may not suit our taste.

Now if u are camping and cooking with family then no issues at all.

You can camp at any of the locations of AJK/Valley Trekkers Tourist Lodges or Rest Houses. They offered us free of charge camping if we wanted to camp in their premises.

Best camping locations are:

1- AJK Huts, Upper Neelum, Keran
2- AJK/Valley Trekkers Tourists Lodges in Keran
3- AJK Tourists Lodges in Sharda and Kel
4- Taobut Camping area near new fishing bridge under army supervision

Tents MUST be water proof and strong enough to hold heavy rains as u would be with family.

No security issues at all but take care of your things yourself as nobody would take responsibility of lost stuff.

Thanks for a detailed reply. I visited these areas many times but many years back so your up-to-date info is encouraging to keep this trip in mind in the near future.
