Day 4 :: Gorikot - Deosai - Sheosar Lake - Sadpara Lake - Skardu --> 140 KM
The day to explore Roof of the World (Deosai Plans). we dont have any clearence issue at the day so we were little relax, and left gorikot at 9:00 AM and reached Sheoar Lake at 11:40, it was amazing Masha Allah, we sepent 80 minutes there and enjoy the out of the world beauty of the lake. Shape of the lake is looking Heart shape just like shangrilla but to get that view you must stop wheh you get first view of the lake and climb to the mountain beside you.
Road condition was good till the sheosar lake
It was 1:00 PM, we moved towards kala pani and after 1 hour drive we reached at the bridge. and after 30 minutes of break move towards Bara pani. there was a tuck shop / Tea shop before but abi kuch b nai tha wahan only nature . after 20 mintues we moved non stop towards end of the deosai plans. we reached Ali Malik at 4:50 PM. after whole day of off roading drive, we took 40 minutes break at Ali Malik, to offer Namaz and had a Tea and boil eggs from the only tuck shop available there.
I can't explain Deosai or you can say I dont have words to explain the Qudrat. if anyone want to understand the beauty of Deosai then he/she must go and visit it.
Lakin janab jo rasta tha, bas kuch na poochain, halat tight ho gai thi sb ki // Alhamdulillah we crossed Deosai without any issue with ride
At 5:30 , wheels were rolling again.and now we need to move downwards till Skardu via Sadpara Village. This patch was little bit scary due to high mountains on one side and other side was steep depression. Alhamdulillah, we reached Sadpara Lake at 6:45 PM. and after 15 minutes drive we were in Skardu City.
while descending from Ali Malik to Skardu, before the sadpara lake there was a water crossing and during crossing it our Prado smashed with a big stone in the water, it damaged the Bumper. baqi sab sahi tha
To Janab, in evening there is a high risk while crossing these water passing patches , kuin k pani ki speed 500 KM/hr ho jati ha
Our stay was on the side of Skardu Airport and the only road that goes toward Airport and continue to Jaglot (KKH) was under construction. so Skardu ke halat bohat kharab thi is taraf se due to dust. but we reached at our point of stay at 8:00 PM, Alhamdulillah.
Next 2 days will be in Skardu and surroundings.
