Saif-ul-Maluk Lake
My advice is to bring your camera; the views are stunning and you’ll want to capture the moment, especially near the famous wooden boats!
If you're on a budget, skip the pricey horse rides and just hike the trail. The walk is beautiful and you’ll get to enjoy the scenery up close.
Mahodand Lake
Lulusar Lake
I think it’s smart to check the weather before you go. It can change unexpectedly, and I wish I had packed a light raincoat. Don't let a little drizzle ruin your day!
My advice is to pack some snacks and water. There are few shops around, and it can get pricey. Having your own food saves you money and keeps you energized for exploring!
Kaghan Valley
Bring cash. A lot of local shops and even some hotels don’t accept cards. I ran into some trouble when I tried to pay with my card at a gas station, so having enough cash on hand really saved me.
If you're planning to trek to Saiful Muluk, start around 7 AM. The early morning light is perfect for photos and you'll beat the crowds, making the experience way more enjoyable.
Mukeshpuri
Wear comfortable shoes with good grip! The trail can be quite slippery, especially after rain. I slipped a few times and it wasn't fun. Trust me on this one.
Miranjani
Katora Lake
Don't forget to pack some snacks and water. I was surprised how limited the options were nearby and it helped save some cash too.
I recommend checking the weather in advance. I got caught in rain, and it made the return trip a bit uncomfortable.
