Overview

Kaghan Valley is an alpine valley in the Mansehra district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan.

The valley spans 155 km (96 mi) across northern Pakistan, rising from its lowest elevation of 650 m (2,134 ft) to its highest point of about 4,170 m (13,690 ft).

Furthermore, landslides from a devastating earthquake in Kashmir in 2005 destroyed many of the access roads to the valley. However, roads have been largely rebuilt since then. Kaghan is a popular tourist attraction.

Moreover, Kaghan Valley can be reached by road from Balakot, Mansehra, and Abbottabad. The valley is always accessible in summer and closed to tourists in winter. This is because glaciers close the road to Kaghan in winter. Although these glaciers usually melt between February and April. The road of the valley and Babusar Pass remain open from May to the end of September.
