Trip to Nathia Gali


Nathia Gali or Nathiagali is a mountain resort town or hill station in Hazara, North-West Frontier Province, Pakistan. The hill resort is located in the lower Himalayan range at an altitude of 8,205 feet or 2501 m. Nathiagali is about 32kms from Murree. It is a part of the Galiaath which are termed such due to several hill-stations in that area ending with the word "gali", most of which are connected to one other. Nathiagali is known for its scenic beauty, hiking tracks and pleasant weather, which is much cooler than the rest of the Galiaath due to it being at a greater altitude. It is situated one hour's drive away from both Murree and Abbottabad; it lies midway between the two. Drive time from Islamabad is usually about two hours, unless there is a lot of traffic. Here are some of the things that are considered to be the specialty of nathia gali.

Fog Fog and Fog
Fog can fall here within seconds even after rainfall. Basically Nathia Gali is at a good height (around 2500 m) and fog is basically the cloud. Visibility can make driving difficult and foreigners shouldn’t drive in fog. Nathia Gali isn’t as big a city as say Murree. The whole town is basically in one very long street on the main road and the residential areas and most of the hotels are high on the hill above Nathiagali.

Monkeys
The wild life of this area is basically monkeys. They live in the trees around here. They are everywhere. Especially in Nathia Gali Bazaar and the Green's Hotel side. They are very beautiful and come to the hotel for food especially in the morning and afternoon. You certainly cannot miss them if you stay at Nathia gali for more than one day.

Scenery
The natural scenery is highly magnificent. It is actually famous for its scenic beauty, the lush green meadows, deep forests of oak; cedar and pine, fog in July/August present a glory. In winter snowfall makes scene more attractive and beautiful. The church in Nathia Gali is a remnant from the period of British Government; it is totally made of wood. It is situated at the edge of the mountain from which there is a beautiful sight. Kashmir can be seen right behind this church, and is a wonderful scene.
Nathia Gali has a mini bazar. The nearest place to Nathia Gali is Kala Bagh. Mukshpuri and Miranjani are two nearby high peaks. Both peaks are highly beautiful and present natural beauty. Taj Mahal hotel is also located in nathia gali.it is included in top five hotels of Pakistan.
