Siri Paye:
Shogran
A slope station called Siri Paye Meadows is situated on a green slope in the
Kaghan Valley in northern Pakistan, rising to a height of 7,749 feet or 2,362
metres above sea level. This lovely slope station offers a broad view of Makra
Peak and Musa Ka Mussala. It typically receives 3–4 feet of snow during the
winter. With all of today's modern conveniences and opulent hotels, this
location is a favourite tourist destination year-round. Shogran, a lovely
plateau, is surrounded by spectacular scenery. Additionally, there is a chance
of a landslide when travelling from Kiwai to Shogran. Shogran has the potential
to become a highly well-liked tourist destination, provided that entry is
secure. According to rumours, the Jeep Mafia won't allow to build a proper
road.
Shogran
is best visited throughout the summer and winter but there is only one hotel
that is open in winter. Every year, the peak season lasts from June until
August. Throughout this time, the mosam largely stays nice. Hail storms brought
on by monsoon winds can accompany storms. Thunderstorms and strong rains can
occasionally make it difficult for visitors to move around while remaining
cool. It is advised to wear warm clothing at night due to the chilly
atmosphere. The entire valley is fully blanketed with snow during the winter
months.
The
primary tourist destinations in Shogran are Siri Paye. Paye in Hindko language
means "high brushing ground." At 2800 metres above Shogran level,
Paaye is a beautiful green knoll. Siri Paye is a fortified meadow in the north.
It is typically remote because Siri Paye is harder to get to than Galiyat. Due
to Siri Paye's rocky landslides, steep slopes, small route, and winter snow,
its natural beauty has been preserved. Paye blossoms in the spring with a
backdrop of the snow-capped Makra Peak. The Paye becomes a clear-cut
end-of-week objective from Pakistan's capital. It transforms into a vast snow
glade in the winter. "Siri" stands for "lake."
It's
a small lake set up in front of the Paye glades. During the winter, Siri
becomes cemented and may be walked on. Siri Paye is close to the stunning hill
towns of Shogran and Kaghan Valley. A freshwater lake with crystal-clear water
sits in the middle of the grassland. Makra Peak, Malika Parbat, and Musa ka
Musala, which is home to untamed yellow and lavender flowers, surround Siri
Paye. Between Rs. 3500 and Rs. 4,000 is the jeep price or charge from Shogran
to Siri Paye Meadows. The road leading to the Siri Paye Meadows is rough and in
poor shape. Due to the muddy track, the route is extremely hazardous during the
wet season. The travel time from Shogran to Siri Paye Meadows is roughly one
hour.
From
Kiwai, Shogran can be reached by jeep, though many people have tried and failed
to drive their cars there. Additionally, it would not be a good idea to drive a
damaged car in order to save a few thousand rupees. Jeeps are inexpensively
available in Kiwai, where you may even park your own car when renting Jeeps for
Shogran. Our driver claims that the locals operating the jeeps have mastered
the skill of driving on the treacherous, icy route while keeping their eyes
closed. Pakistan's army built Jeeps for service in the 1970s. Those Jeeps were
eventually sold to private sources after serving for many years.
