Naltar Lakes

During the winter, it becomes almost impossible to reach the lake by vehicle due to the heavy snowfall in the Naltar Valley.

The name " سترنگی"('Satrangi') means 'seven-colored' in Urdu, so called because of the many shades of blue and green visible on the surface of the lake due to the moss, grasses, aquatic plants and roots of the trees in and around the lake.

The lakes are surrounded by dense pine forests.

The third has azure colored water and is thus called Feroza Lake.

"فیروزہ" ('Feroza') in Urdu means azure color.
