Three lakes, three different colours

The Naltar Lakes are absolutely stunning — each one is a different shade of turquoise and emerald. Surrounded by dark pine forests, it feels otherworldly. Summer wildflowers make it even more colourful.

Underrated gem of GilgitBaltistan

Most tourists go to Hunza but skip Naltar — big mistake. The forest drive alone is beautiful. Lakes are incredibly photogenic. The road is rough but manageable in a good jeep.
