Any Gurus???
Jeeps start to cross between first ten days of June. Check the Kaghan Valley update thread for 2012 and 2013 for more details.
1- Doubtful and depends on amount of snow. Even if it is open then it will be only for 4x4 so early in the season.2- Travel in day time and u will b fine 3- Take jeeps from Balakot on per day basis and fuel expense will be yours. Use Google Earth to calculate route distance and use 6 km/ltr estimate for jeeps4- Zong and Telenor have better coverage5- I don't think so 6- Rama Valley and Lake, Deosai Plains, Shigar and Khaplu Valleys, Hunza, Nagar, Atabad Lake
my guess is taht around mid june it be assesible coz of late snowfals....
@ aesiege
Thank u for reply brother.Is there any other way for night stay at deosai?
Early June crossing of Deosai depends on snow amount during winters. There is only one public route which starts from Chillum Chauki and ends in Skardu. Other routes are restricted and under army control.
after mid June you can enjoy camping at barapani near wwf checkposts...
Brother @aesiege, @conflicted, @asifcae and all other respected travel gurus.
Will Deosai be open after 10th of June and will be crossable??
We are planning to visit Sakardu via Astore, Deosai.
Plz guide us in this plan.
yes you can but by trek not by jeep. ..... may be you are able to reach up to some where from skardu...
overall, it is snowy in june
yar i think it will be open after that for jeeps as its a local route....
Dear Pakwheelers & especially gurus
We, whole family, are going on a 3 days trip from coming Friday to Sunday on rented hi-roof. Destination is Kutton on 1st day, Sharda day visit and Keran with night stay on Day 2. Day 3 is for return journey with stopover in Murree, but I am not satisfied with Murree in Day 3. Please suggest any place other than murree while returning home.
@conflicted, @asifcae
Thank you very much brothers.
You can visit Peer Chanasi....
Thandiani is Good Option Brother
How about exploring Rawal Lake (Lake View Park) and Margalla Hills (Daman-e-Koh and Pir Sohawa).
Thank you all of you Someone suggest to leave early from MZFD and reached balakot / kiwai for lunch, spent an hour or two there, and then return to Lahore. At least, kaghan valley ko haath to laga aye ***. Is it possible !!....
