Do not forget to visit Shogran and Siri Payee as this is on your way and very beautiful place, better stop there while coming back as it will be relaxing as well.

Its my sincere advice, do not visit in summer holidays, because there is a lot rush due and unethical and nonsense crowd around there, your family will suffer in this situation.

I will advice , you need to visit before or after summer holidays.

Good Luck and have a safe journey.

First week of june is the best time to visit naran kaghan... at that time u will find lot of snow near lake saif ul malook... last year when i went to naran kaghan on 1st june... lake was almost covered with snow...

in 1st week of june rent of rooms will also be not at its peak... I think its a best time to visit...

I dont know how many days u have for this trip,anyhow first go to shogran which is almost 10 hours drive from Lhr,visit siri paye which is jeep track from shogran (very beautiful place) & stay shogran at Pine Park hotel & next day move to naran(approx 2 hours drive)& stay there for atleast two days,on first day visit Lake Saiful Malook & second day visit Lulu sir lake & Lala zar.If u r going on 6th June might b u wouldn't face any rush becoz most of Pvt schools are closing from 10th June for summer holidays.
Thanx.

@ Sara - I would suggest that you drive from Lahore direct to Balakot via Mansehra. Stay one night in Balakot (good hotels are there) and enjoy the sceneic beauty of mountains. From Balakot go to Naran and enjoy the unforgetful beauty of Saiful Malook lake. Marvellous Malka Parbat mountain covered with ice all the year round (from where the water of Saif ul Malook lake comes) scene awaits you there. If you have time and courage to drive on zig zag roads go from Naran to Babu Sar lake. On your way back do stop in Kaghan for one day. Do not forget to eat Khoobani and Chittar kabab in Kaghan. I do hope your trip will be remembered for whole of your and your family's life. I have visited United States of America many a time, but there is no match of natural beauty of northern parts of Pakistan. Have a good time and enjoyable journey!!!

Try not to eat much from outside. My brother went with his family last year and because of poor food half of his family became sick and they have to come back.

@Sara in my opinion 1st one night stay would be at Shogran, there is one nice hotel there and from there u should visit siri paye only if you like greenery and if like hiking then hike for Makra top.
2nd day go to Naran for couple of days, mostly hotels are same but better to choose the one near market if there are kids of else PineHills hotel or Sayyam Height, visit lake saiful Malook, Lake Lullusar.

Rafting is a nice sport in kunhar river, you will have fun and for food don't miss the fish of river kunhar and search for good quality food which is not easy to find there.

Have a nice trip :)
