4 Days Kumrat Valley tour with Jahaz Banda
The 4 Days Kumrat and Jahaz Banda tour takes you deep into the lesser-explored regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Starting from Upper Dir, this tour includes the peaceful forests of Kumrat Valley and the elevated meadows of Jahaz Banda, offering a mix of riverside relaxation and moderate hiking adventure.
Kumrat Valley — Start of the Journey
The route begins with a drive through Dir to Thal and then into Kumrat Valley. Travelers get to experience river streams, alpine forests, and traditional wooden houses that reflect the culture of northern KPK. The area is quiet, far from urban noise, and ideal for travelers looking to disconnect.
Jahaz Banda — High-Altitude Meadow
Jahaz Banda is a flat grassy plain at about 3,100 meters above sea level. It is reached via jeep up to Jandrai village, followed by a moderate 2–3 hour trek through forests and sloped terrain. The effort is worth it — the meadow is surrounded by snow-covered peaks and feels like a natural rooftop. Nights here are cold, and most travelers choose to camp or stay in basic wooden lodges.
