Looking for Lahore to Naran Kaghan by car? Welcome Rent A Car, DHA Phase 1, has you covered – self drive or with a driver, delivered to your door.

Lahore to Naran Kaghan – the trip
From Lahore it is about 560 km to Naran Kaghan – 10–11 hours of driving via M-2 + Hazara Motorway + N-15. Most of it is mountain road after Islamabad, which is why we send drivers who have done this route many times and suggest an SUV or 4×4, or a Hiace for groups. Northern tours are booked with our driver only, never self drive.
A suggested plan
- Lahore to Islamabad on the M-2, then the Hazara Motorway to Balakot – night in Balakot or Kiwai.
- Up the Kaghan valley to Naran; Lake Saif-ul-Malook by local jeep.
- Lulusar Lake and Babusar Top (road usually open June to September).
- Back towards Islamabad, night stay on the way or straight to Lahore.
Change anything you like – add a night, skip a place, or start from Islamabad. Send your dates and hotel bookings and we will plan the drive around them.
Don't miss
- Lake Saif-ul-Malook
- Shogran and Siri Paye
- Lulusar Lake
- Babusar Top
- The Kunhar River
When to go
Go between May and September. Babusar usually opens in June; in winter plan only up to Kiwai or Shogran.
