Salam All,
I will be going to Naran with my husband in late July..
We were thinking Abbotabad, Balakot (Night stay) and then to Naraan ...
I am from the Uk so would like to know what is appropriate clothing.. I get cold easily so wanted to know if a warm jacket would be appropriate or just a jumper would suffice..
Thansk for the advice on places to go.. I can't wait..
u can stay overnight at abbotabad or balakot , there r hotels available.
but in my opinion u have to stay at shogran 1st night and than move for naran.
For clothing, the weather is kind of unpredictable, it gets very cold in nights and usually hot in day time but if there is cloud cover, it will be cold in day time too.. So its better option to take a jacket with you. Jogging shoes would be preferred in case you have to trek a little, they are very easy and comfortable in those areas.
and all the information about visiting naran including, TRANSPORT OPTION`S, ROUTE, CLOTHING, WHICH PLACES TO VISIT IN NARAN, BUDGET every thing is available on visitkaghan.com
you can check it out for more details and i hope u will find it helpful.
I have already been to nathia gali ayubia and murree . . .
Whats the distance between Abbottabad and Shoogran and whats the travel time ?
Malik saab, even if you have already visited nathia gali, i still recommend nathia gali as sufi did, going to shogran and then coming back in a day can turn into hectic and strenuous trip instead of relaxing and enjoyable one.
though you can go and come back in a day, but you never know where and how many of the land slides you gonna meet en route. and specially area between kewai and balakot is so full of such places which move very frequently, sometimes daily.
go to nathia gali, with no or very little luggage, then go to donga gali (just half an hour drive from nathia gali), then instead of going to ayubia by road, take a walk in Ayubia National Park (which starts from donga gali and ends at ayubia), the trek is not steep at all, offers great scenery. takes almost 3 hours of easy walk. have late lunch in ayubia and then take a taxi back to pindi

many different options are already posted in this thread...
yes weather is unpredictable as many said, a good warm jacket would suffice if it gets colder, otherwise a simple upper would do
Thanx Ace Bhai . . . thats what my brother suggested to go to Donga Gali. . . we did not knew about Ayubia National Park. we certainly look in to that. :k:
