Tourism in the Valley Kumrat: ‘The Noise of the Water here also gives Comfort’

The Kumrat valley has not been able to attract tourists, despite its very beautiful scenery. If you claim to make Lahore a Paris or a country like Switzerland, you will hear from the politicians. However, when Swiss tourists visit and compare Pakistan’s location with their country’s beautiful scenery, they will make a positive impression.

Locals of Upper Dir District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, about 384 km from the Pakistani capital Islamabad, call the people of the area ‘the Switzerland of Pakistan’. Frankie, a resident of Kumrat, came to Pakistan 30 years ago from Switzerland, and now he was returning to Kumrat, where he had traveled thousands of miles.

If you intend to spend a few days in the natural environment away from the shores of the world and your choice is to visit the valley of Kumrat, keep in mind that you will face some difficulties, but when you reach the destination. This valley can be even more beautiful than you might imagine in the natural landscape.

You will have some difficulties reaching the room, but once you arrive, your heart will be happy. There are many lush valleys in the valley, surrounded by snow-capped mountains.

‘The Noise of the Water Here also gives Comfort’

From wherever you pass the rocks and water hits the rocks, the water of the Panjkora River makes you feel like you’re listening to light music, and the aroma of the cedar forests reminds you of the natural beauty you imagined coming here. The funniest thing here is the high mountains and the noise of the water along the way, which gives a strange calm. So it isn’t clear, but it gives you a lot of peace of mind. There are many lush valleys in the valley, surrounded by foggy mountains.

Exotic location with breathtaking views

 

There is peace of mind, but to reach here, big skulls have to be rolled. If it weren’t for this, Kumrat Valley would have been included in other famous tourist destinations in the country, but this is not the case. Traveling on the rockiest paths is a must. It is followed by the unavailability of internet and mobile services, making access difficult.

The journey up to the top was easy, and we were on a paved road, so it was decided quickly, but the real test started from here. After that, the mobile service in the Shringar area left, and the road continued further into the village of Thal. The distance from this location to Kumrat is only 12 km, but it takes about an hour and a half.

Hotel in Valley Kumrat

Hotels in the Kumrat Valley are few, and most tourists prefer camping here. Entering the Kumrat valley, at the foot of the mountains, the branch of the Panjkora River flows down the river Kumrat. On the other side, there are small villages, and then they are surrounded by natural landscapes. Only tourists come to see the beauty.

Here, you also see some recently constructed hotels whose local owners appear to be trying to provide tourists with the necessities of life, but success cannot be guaranteed.
