Dear PW users, though this is my first post but I am reading the posts on this forum for the last 1 year or so.
@aesiege is my favorite, @asifcae, @conflicted, @baburawan & @humayun are also masters of this forum.

I am planning a short trip to Soon Valley later in March from Lahore, can you people guide me how to reach there in own connivance and the places to visit?

Thx a lot bro

You can use M-2 till Kallar Kahar and then use Khushab road.

First place near to M-2 Kallar Kahar interchange is Kallar Kahar lake itself. A good family spot with small amusement park as well and boating in lake.

Then onwards to Khushab u can visit Khabeki Lake, Uchalli Lake, Kanhatti Gardens, Jahlar lake, Amb Temples etc.

If you go to opposite side towards Chakwal then u can visit Malot Temples, Katas Raj Temples and Kheora Salt mines.

This all is not a one day trip so let us know your timelines then people can suggest a better itinerary.

If u can visit in early February then bird watching at Uchalli Lake will be lots of fun with Siberian guests visiting Pakistan

Any suggestions for a trip at the end of March and early April?

asifcae (asifcae) 2013-03-14 11:21:55 +0500 #415

this is most tricy season even i cannot find any suitable destinaltion but generally Kashmir and central punjab are good choices

aesiege (aesiege) 2013-03-14 17:09:45 +0500 #416

Doc, take your bike to Kashmir and unleash the Pentax
