After going nearly 8 KM up on the mountain and for almost one and half hours, our jeep stopped at a spot where there are hotels and some small tuck shops beneath that slope, we can see the delightful lake. Our driver told us that from here we have to trek down till the lake as jeeps are not allowed to go near the lake. It was a 10 minutes trek and we have reached the most popular lake of Pakistan, the Saiful Muluk.

Situated at the height of 10,578 feet (3,224 meters) above sea level, Saiful Muluk is the most beautiful lake in the Kaghan Valley. Offering splendid views of the Peak of Malika Parbat (Mountain) this lake is a water source for River Kunhar, the river that is going along with us from the Mansehra district. The picture shows the panoramic view of Lake Saiful Muluk in front and Malika Parbat (Mountain) in the back.
