Great. You mean it is about 690 km from lhr to kalam?? Really? It may take 12 hours roughly or more? What do you advise?

I see. Many thanks. What are hotel rates usually for good family residence? What's the electricity availability?

Hello @black88 , I am planning trip to daral lake next month.

Salam,

How are the conditions in Kalam Valley? I mean road and hotels. Also, will it be possible to go to Utror next week? Lastly, which one do you suggest: Mingora to Kalam or Behrain to Kalam?

Best,

black88 (black88) 2017-01-17 14:50:57 +0500 #251

there was road cloased due to heavy snow fall.now road is clear but road condition is even worst not sure one can approach to utror valley as well.....couldn't get you by behrain to kalam or mingora to kalam???

Thank you. Could you please check this itinerary:

Day 1: Mingora to Malam jabba - Malam jabba to Mingora
Day 2: Mingora to Kalam (Kalam forest, Ushu and Matiltan) night stay in Kalam
Day 3: Kalam (Utror Valley, Gabral) night stay in Kalam
Day 4: Kalam to Miandam, night stay in Miandam

Does this look good to you? I believe we will have one more night to spend. Where shall we stay if we have to spend an extra night?

black88 (black88) 2017-01-17 18:17:05 +0500 #253

you have planed well but im not sure that you could visit gabral utror side ......but it would be before the time saying any ways if you wanna spend another night you can add behrain or marghazar as well.

imshery (ssssssssssssssssss) 2017-01-17 18:44:54 +0500 #254

Should I add Behrain before visiting Kalam? I mean, like this: Mingora to Behrain then Behrain to Kalam or Mingora to Kalam looks fine to you?

black88 (black88) 2017-01-18 16:05:13 +0500 #255

would be much better if you add behrain. Mingora to Behrain then Behrain to Kalam

imshery (ssssssssssssssssss) 2017-01-19 04:18:57 +0500 #256

Thank you for your reply, bro. But I have heard there's nothing to see in Behrain. How true is it? Also, could you please tell me how much time does it take to reach Kalam from Behrain and how much is the fare if I travel via public transport (if there's any in this season)?

Dear brother, please guide me if I plan to visit swat till Kalam in Ramzan with family this year. Like weather , environment, crowed, room rates (based on previous experience). This year Ramazan will be observed in Jun and my plan to stay is for 10 days.
Thanks.

black88 (black88) 2017-01-26 17:13:33 +0500 #258

bro its some how true but if u compare i guess there is nothing to see any where as well....depends what one wanna see.any ways its up to u.it will take approximately 5+ hours till kalam from behrain.really don't know what local vehicle charges p/head.but traveling with them would be very difficult in case if u have family with...

black88 (black88) 2017-01-26 17:15:53 +0500 #259

no worry bro rates would be very reasonable and weather would be even better those days as i guess 1st ramzan is on 27th may.crowed will be very less comparatively .
