This trip included a visit to the Lalazar / Ayubya National Park in Nathia Gali. It is located about 30 KMs away from the beautiful city of Murree. On our way to Nathia Gali it was very cloudy.

The park was very well-maintained and clean. I saw a variety of flowers, trees, and snails along the path. It took around 20 minutes to hike up to the park (an elevation of about 100 meters).

The water in this region is normally heated using wood. This was a water tank just outside a hotel with two large reservoirs.

Although the park was quite big, it only contained a single wild animal: a Guldar Cheetah. The board below say that this Cheetah is found in all fours provinces of Pakistan and is known to prefer solidarity. It also prefers walking on narrow paths due to which it gets hunted easily. It is known for attacking its preys swiftly.

Other than the spectacular view, this park also connected to the Mukeshpuri mountain through a trekking route which took 3 hours.

The park’s entrance was located just besides this hotel.

On our way back we ran into some monkeys; there are many of those in the mountains of Murree and the surrounding region.
