Naran, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa – The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government has announced plans to install a chairlift connecting Naran to the renowned Saiful Muluk Lake. This project, which will be executed through a public-private partnership, aims to enhance tourism in the Kaghan Valley and offer a more accessible transportation option for visitors.
The chairlift will feature stations in Naran and at Saiful Muluk Lake, providing a scenic and comfortable alternative to the rugged jeep journeys currently required to reach the lake. This development is expected to be particularly beneficial for those who have medical conditions or are wary of traditional off-road travel.
The feasibility report for the chairlift is in its final stages, with the government preparing to address the necessary formalities for project execution. This initiative is part of a broader effort to explore and expand tourism opportunities in the region, boosting the appeal of Kaghan Valley’s existing recreational resorts.
The chairlift will not only improve accessibility but is also anticipated to attract more tourists, further supporting the local economy and promoting the natural beauty of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
