Day 4. Leave for Khunjrab early morning, visit attabad lake on the way, come back to Hunza Stay for the night. (I am thinking not to go Gilgit and stay in Hunza since it would already be a long journey to Khunjerab and back)

Its perfectly normal to visit khunjerab and then back to gilgit for night stay...IMO don't stay in hunza,,,go to gilgit for night stay...it will be good for your next journey to skardu..it will reduce almost 3 hours...
if you start your journey for khunjerab at 0800 hrs,, you will be there at 1200 hrs easily..stay there for 1 hour..and then start your journey back...make a short stops near passu, and hussaini suspension bridge..you will be in gilgit at 1900 or 2000 hrs easily,,,,

i have actually decided to tell my driver to take the murre - muzaffarabad route to Naran, I hope there won't be traffic there

Don't do this...you will regret...take hassanabdal mansehra abbotabad route...just start your journey early..

Day 3. Visit Baltit fort, Naltar Valley and Eagles Nest and Night stay in same hotel.

skip naltar valley...naltar can be easily done from gilgit...it will demand another day from you..

Day 7. Leave For Deosai early in morning. sadpara lake will come in between. also visit Sheosar Lake in Deosai and back to Skardu and night stay in Skardu.

Try to add atleast one more day to skardu...and on that day visit Khaplu valley..located in district ganche ,,,some 120 km from skardu....don't miss it...

For the itinerary that I have below. Do you think 75K for 5 persons would be enough for hotels and food? 2 nights Naran, 3 nights Hunza and 3 nights Skardu.

75k is more than enough...your hotel expenses will be upto 40k maximum...and 25-30k food...

My dear, Why not take with you your own Small tents? At Naran KP police provides free tented accomodation. Or you pitch your own tent and pay paltry amount of 500 for your own tent. In Gilgit AND hunza you can pitch your own tent for free. They are good people. After ending the fear of lawlessness a large number of people isit nothern areas and swat, malam jaba, kalam etc.

In last july i got a room in hotel lalazar kaghan just for 1000 . Room was normal with three beds but without warm water.

[pwuser149839278352]

can we visit Khaplu in our hiace or we need to hire a jeep for it?

[pwuser149839278352]

hotel lalazar

is there any issue with the muzaffarabad route?

[pwuser149839278352]

what seriously?

[pwuser149839278352]

any issues with this route. A guy recommended me to take this route? Please reply.

[haroonmcs26]

A long one

[haroonmcs26]

Yes absolutely serious. I was with family. Also theyprovided shaded parking.

[pwuser149839278352]

where is this hotel? Main Naran road?

[haroonmcs26]

On main road kaghan town. At that time their max room was rs.2500. Bt u need to bargain. On booking they assured to provide warm water but in morning they gave one balti of water. Remaining was ok

[alishankhann]

You can easily visit khaplu in your hiace..don't need to hire any jeep..

Islamabad to balkot via abbotabad is 200km while via muzafaabad is 160km..you will be thinking its shortZzbut believe me it will take more time due to hilly terrain..you will use motorway upto burhan and then hasanabad mansehra road upto mansehra
Just start ur journey early you will reach abbottabaf from islamabad in just 2 hours..from islamabad interchange..30 min for burhan and it takes 1.5 hours early in the morning on that route to reach abbottabad..then 30 min for mansehra and next 30-40 for balakot..
Muzafarabad balakot road was in a bad shape back then when i visited

[pwuser149839278352]

oh ok I see so its before Naran

[pwuser149839278352]
