So finally reached our rest house booked at national forest department, Very nicely built a complete accommodation for a family

Seems like a very interesting trip. Btw what was the cost of booking this rest house and how did you book it ? Is it safe to stay here overnight ?

I booked it for free using some source. A single of this house type contains 3 rooms with attach bath, a kitchen and a dinning table. You can inquire the booking details via Forest department. And yes it perfectly safe.

There is some army unit adjacent to this rest house. A guard at enterance and some levies checkpost at corner. The rest house is itself a very charming and attractive place. As i mentioned my camera battery out. or i must have captures the whole scenes.

These a small spot at the back of rest house at the top of mountain with sitting arrangement and that site is killing

This is pakistan's biggest national and 3 dimensional national park. And its one of the rarest National Parks in the world.

3 dimensional means you can found Mountains, Plains and water. And its rarest in the world where you can find all three factors together

Now making our way towards "Nani Mandir" .. The place is said to be evolved around 5000 years ago. Hindus offer thier biggest religious prayers here. Hindus from all around the world gather here and offer their prayers

On our way to nani mandir. The place is literally full of nature and wild life at its epic. The track is damaged, around 30 KM of dirt and gravel.

The name of place "Hingol" is said to be evolved from "Hinglaj' .. Which is a hindu goddess and she ruled this place thousands of thousands year ago.. Their are many small shrines on way to "Nani Mandir" .. The place is really very very vacant. You can see nature at its epic.

We spotted ibex and other natural animals. I really enjoyed riding in this place and i wish i could go there again.

[Silver_Knife]

The track is really damaged. And literally no signs of life

[Silver_Knife]

Deserted terrains

The track gets worse as you reach nearer to Nani Mandir

[Silver_Knife]

As i told, there are small shrines on way to nani mandir.. This one is the mandir of Ganesh (If iam not mistaken)

You can see the condition of the track. Its off roading now

Thanks for detailed reply. Seems like a really good place to visit. We usually hear only bad news about balochistan so security is the main issue. I guess with army unit and levies checkpost security wont be an issue here. The route seems pretty secure too. I always want to visit hingol but nobody agrees to visit balochistan :). Inshallah in the near future will do

So this is the place. Nani Mandir where hindu offers thier pilgrimage. The place was nicely built. There were some hindu families coming all the way from India. The pandit told that they offer thier biggest religious prayers here in month of April.

They were making "Halwa" as a prasad

Its secure till Oramara. So you can enjoy the place till Ormara. There is big navy base in Ormara. Plus there are coast guard units on way till Hingol. So i believe the place is secure to visit..

The site was under construction, Or you can say extension to accommodate maximum number of visiters.

According to Pandit, This is matta hinglag (Nani Matta) with his childhood friend. These are thousands of years old and the oldest of hindu's godess

Now from there we made our way back to Rest house and from there towards Kund Malir, Its a sandy beach. But the site has some killing views
