Camping in Kaghan Valley

Camping may be a soul-enriching experience when visiting Kaghan Valley. Visitors and trekkers will bring their own tents and accessories, as well as rent them. There are campgrounds in the neighbouring Kaghan Valley, where a large number of visitors could be accommodated during the summer season.

These campsites are accessible at Lake Babusar Top, Lulusar Lake, Saiful Muluk Lake, Dudipatsar Lake and Lalazar in Kaghan Valley. In these areas, at night, visitors will encounter a clear sky full of stars. They can also experience a wonderful view of the early morning; the view of the lakes and the surrounding mountains, particularly the most eye-catching view of Malika Parbat.
