THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND PEACEFUL PLACE I HAVE VISITED SO FAR IN PAKISTAN. Shogran (Urdu: شوگران ‎) is a village situated on a green plateau in the Kaghan Valley, northern Pakistan at a height of 7,749 feet or 2,362 metres above sea level. Shogran is located at a distance of 34 km away from Balakot. The road from Islamabad to Kiwai is metalled and measures 212 km. From Shogran, you can ride a jeep or horse or hike to several picturesque places like Siri, Paye and Makra Peak.
