Overview

Shounter Valley is a hidden gem in Azad Kashmir, accessible from Kel in the Neelum Valley via a thrilling jeep track. The valley is famous for its stunning alpine lake - Shounter Lake - set beneath snow-capped peaks at approximately 3100m. With lush green meadows, gushing waterfalls and dramatic mountain backdrops, Shounter Valley remains one of the most pristine and least-visited destinations in the Kashmir region.
