The northern areas of Pakistan are blessed with excellent landscape rangers, from snow-clad mountains to flickering valleys. The region is a dream for those who love adventures, are keen on history and are interested in nature. So, before you pack your bags for a trip to the north, here are five places you must go and behold.

1. Hunza Valley – An Enviable Destination

Hunza Valley is quite a colorful and beautiful area, which attracts tourists for its rich cultural heritage and beauty. The Gilgit-Baltistan area of Pakistan provides breathtaking views of Rakaposhi, Ultar Sar and Lady Finger. For instance, you can trek to fairy-tale glaciers or visit the Altit and Baltit Forts and the delicious apricots and cherries which are famous here. Therefore, Hunza is more than perfect for all those daredevils who love to have some adventure yet have time to be with themselves.

Fun Fact: Hunza is referred to as "Heaven on Earth" because of its stunning views, and it is widely speculated that the people living here have one of the highest life expectancies in the World.

2. These are Fairy Meadows, the Alpine beauty that will enchant anyone who sees the breathtaking scenery.

Fairy Meadows is a beautiful place located at the base of Nanga Parbat, the ninth-highest mountain in the World. Requiring a four-wheel drive journey and a trek, this mesmerizing plateau surrounded by tall pines has a patio with a view of Nanga Parbat's snowy tops. It is a perfect camping ground for those who exercise extreme tourism in natural facilities.

Pro Tip: You should go there in summer because you'll get the best weather; the views are perfect for Instagram.

3. Skardu – The Gateway to Great Range

Skardu is a good starting point for some of the World's highest ranges and includes K2 as well. Not only is it an excellent place for mountain climbers, but it is also a wonderful destination for ordinary travelers. Some of the places that I have seen and liked include the blue water of Shangrila Lake, Shigar Fort, and the appealing view of Deosai National Park, whether it is trekking, the beauty of the place, just sitting by the lake or watching the stars at night Skardu does not let you down.

Did You Know? Deosai National Park, Located in Gilgit-Baltistan, also known as the "Land of Giants," is one of the highest altitude plateaus in the World!

4. Naltar Valley – Embellishing the Meaning of Lakes

Famous for its beautiful, colorful and transparent lakes, Naltar Valley is one of the unexplored regions of Northern Pakistan. Three lakes, namely Blue, Green and Satrangi, are located in the valley, and they are so beautiful that they seem to be colored artificially. This place is also ideal for skiing in winter, especially in Naltar Valley. The trek to Naltar is as picturesque as the place itself: spectacular foliage of fir and juniper forests during most of this route and snow-clad peaks in the background.

Traveler Tip: If you are a fan of snow and skiing, Naltar is a paradise in winter, but don't forget that you might find it rather chilly over there.

5. Swat Valley – The Switzerland of Pakistan(menu: Home, About Swat, Hotel, Booking, Gallery, Contact Us, Tour Packages, Sights & Attractions, Activities & Adventures)

It is not wrong to call Swat Valley' Mini Switzerland' as it encompasses history, culture and natural scenic beauty. It has been reclaimed as one of the most beautiful regions in the country because of its green pastures, flowing rivers, and forests of high altitude. One must explore Mingora to have the best of both worlds if you decide to visit Swat and explore Malam Jabba in addition to Kalam. Tourists interested in culture can visit the relics of Buddhist architecture spread across the valley.

Fun Fact: Malam Jabba in Swat is among the few skiing resorts in Pakistan, and its winter vacation is perfect!
