Yes unfortunately did'nt even attempted Shogran. We drove back from Kewai and returned to Abbotabad on same day. Our plan was to stay in Abbotabad at night during our trip.

The reason of not going to Shogran are as mentioned below:
1- It took us 3 hours from Mansehra to Kewai and we reached there at 1.30 Pm. Time was short as our plan was to return to Abbotabad on same day..
2- Secondly we can't go till shogran on Santro as per locals the track to shogran is not in good shape. Jeeps can go there. The problem with us, where to park our car in Kewai? Although locals at Abshar Hotel were saying that we can park the car in front of their hotel on their responsibilty but We was not satisfied to leave the car.

Some renovation work was undergoing at this hotel. Although hotel was not working but we stayed there for a while as this is our very first glimpse of Kunhar. So we stayed there to relax and praise the beauty of nature created by ALLAH ALMIGHTY.
