About Neelum Valley
Neelum Valley follows the Neelum River deep into Azad Kashmir, from the outskirts of Muzaffarabad all the way to the remote village of Taobat. Dense pine forest, waterfalls and riverside villages line the road for nearly its entire length.
It's the gateway to some of Pakistan's most rewarding side trips — the meadow village of Arang Kel, the turquoise Ratti Gali Lake, and the ancient ruins of Sharda — making it a favorite for travelers who want scenery without the crowds of Naran or Swat.
