Tectonic Elements of NW Himalaya
03 days (11-13 September 2015)
Saifal Malook Jheel is a stunning high-altitude lake nestled amidst the scenic mountain ranges of Pakistan’s Kaghan Valley. Our journey to this natural wonder began in Balakot, where we set out on a 3-day field tour to explore the tectonic elements of the NW Himalaya region.
Traversing through rugged terrain and crossing gurgling rivers, we made our way towards the enchanting Saifal Malook Jheel. As we reached closer, the awe-inspiring beauty of the lake unfolded before our eyes in all its glory. A turquoise blue body of water surrounded by snow-capped peaks and dense forests, it was truly a sight to behold.
We spent a day at the lake, basking in the serenity of the surroundings and studying the geological features of the area. The tour also encompassed visits to nearby hot springs, waterfall, and glaciers, offering a complete package for nature enthusiasts.
Overall, the Saifal Malook Jheel field tour was a memorable experience that left us with a deeper appreciation for the beauty and complexity of our planet’s tectonic processes. We returned with a newfound respect for the power of nature and a desire to explore more of what our world has to offer.
