Lake Saif al Malook

Overview

Perched more than 10,000 feet above sea level and ensconced by majestic mountains, this body of water bears the name of an Egyptian prince.

Studies affirm that Saif-ul-Malook Lake ranks as the nation’s fifth-most enticing tourist spot. Enveloped in captivating allure, a serene ambiance, and awe-inspiring panoramas, the lake magnetizes a multitude of globetrotters annually. Optimal for exploration between May and September, the winter months blanket the lake in snow, rendering the roads impassable due to heavy snowfall. Besides being a habitat for brown trout, the lake offers an iconic backdrop of Malika Parbat, the loftiest peak in Kaghan Valley.
