Tour to LakeIt can be toured by many tracks.

A track from Saiful Mulook Lake and requires physical and mental fitness.Other from Malka Parbat base camp where one have to climb on mountain by own feet without horse, here oxygen levels are very low so be very careful because it is difficult to breath

The optimal time to set off for the lake from Saif ul Muluk is around 09:00 in the morningHorses can also be hired .But, It costs almost PKR 1200-1500 per horse and guide for 1000 but one still has to walk more than 35% of the distance himself

Peak before Ansoo lake i.e. the View Point:After 2 to 3 hours hike you should reach at the peak from where you can view the Ansoo Lake completely. Mostly it is covered with clouds but you will find moments to get a picture of it.

There are different types of wild flowers grown naturally. One of them is this yellow flower. I hope you will like the idea of taking flower in close up and the blurred ansoo lake in the background.Nobody has marked this note useful
