Ansoo Lake...Tears of Deou Safaid

Tear Lake
Friendly pine trees, the crystal clear natives like their lakes invite all people around the world to get the gist of beauty. Kaghan valley a jewel among the many beautiful valleys of Mansehra district of Hazara KPK offers the legendry places. One of them I am going to talk about is Ansoo Lake. Ansoo Lake slips into the lives of Deou Safaid (the white giant), the prince Saif-ul-maluk and the fairy Badi-ul- Jamal. The marvelous tear shaped lake gives you the ride of a classic fable from the Hazara region of Pakistan. The sight is worth the drag. Ansoo Lake is positioned between three mountains. It is just a small depression and guarded by the peaks of these mountains.
Lets’ talk about the best time of the year: July to August, the finest moments for nature lovers. The summer love enriched with the splendors of green, blue, white and brown color. It’s all there waiting for you.
This lake can be reached by two different routes. One of two qualities you must possess; a good hiker or a mountaineer. First take a route for a mountaineer which is short but steeper trek takes more than 7 hours from Lake Saiful Mulook. The best time to take this trek is of 6:00 am in the morning. This trek is covered with snow almost more of the year. Horses can be a good option but one still has to walk more than 35% of the distance by himself. This trek further divided into two parts. First half covers the journey from Saiful Malook valley to Malika Parbat base camp. Second half is steeper starting from Malika Parbat base camp and ends with Ansoo Lake.
So the hiker ones, the Second trek to reach Ansoo Lake starts from the village Mahandri, and goes through Manoor Gali and Kach Gali. This hike takes at least three days of 12 hour trekking to get to Ansoo Lake. The big advantage to get the long route is that, it gives an opportunity to camp along the rivers, in jungles, on the peak of mountains and in abandoned towns.
You know you’re at Ansoo Lake. When you’re wiggling your toes in cold stream full with tears and truly staring at the clear turquoise colored water sole to the area.  Moreover, you’re standing 16,490 ft above sea level. Adorable silence of the wind whispers the stories of past. Yep, this is indeed, an exotic lay.  And you just got there!
Wait for a minute, there are some recommendation for you before you plan for Ansoo Lake. You must prepare for Heavy rain at any time, keep the extra clothes as in August you may feel freezing if trapped in the rain. You should have proper shoes and socks, must have some extra one. You ought to have plenty of mineral water, juices, energy drink, chocolates and enough food.

if you are the one to who wants to listen the murmurs of fable,take  flights to Islamabad and make your plan..
