NALTAR VALLEY


Naltar is a valley near Gilgit and Hunza in the Gilgit–Baltistan province. It is a forested village known for its wildlife and magnificent mountain scenery. This valley is equally known for skiing in winters and greenry and scenic beauty in Summer. There is a lake in the Naltar valley known as 'Bashkiri Lake' at a distance of 13 kilometers (08 mi) from Upper Naltar . The road from village to the lake is nonmetallic and narrow alongside a stream throughout this road coming from the mountains. In winter it is almost impossible to reach the lake through any vehicle due to the snow (10 to 15 feet high) on the road. Tourists from across the world visit here to see the nature at its best.
