Naran Kaghan Tour Packages from Lahore by Road

A Naran Kaghan tour from Lahore is a 3 to 5 day road trip through the Kaghan valley of KPK, following the Kunhar River to Naran, with jeep trips to Saif ul Malook Lake, Lulusar and Babusar Pass, travelling by AC bus with a licensed operator.

Naran Kaghan is Pakistan's most loved summer destination, a green valley of rivers, meadows and alpine lakes running along the Kunhar River. Travelon Today offers affordable Naran Kaghan tours from Lahore and Islamabad, all by road in our own AC buses.

The journey takes you through Balakot and the Kaghan valley to the town of Naran. From there, a jeep ride leads to the famous Saif ul Malook Lake, while the road north climbs past Lulusar Lake to the high Babusar Pass. On the way you can also visit Shogran and the green Siri Paye meadows, and the flower-filled Lalazar plateau.

Because Naran is closer to Lahore and easy to reach, it is ideal for family trips, short holidays and first-time northern travellers. Our by-road Naran tours are planned to be safe, comfortable and budget-friendly.
