Nilan Bhotu Explained

Nilan Bhotu Valley is about 40 minutes drive from Pir Sohawa on the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) side of Margalla Hills, roughly 27km (17miles) North-East of Islamabad, the capital city of Pakistan.[1] The 'Chilla Gah' (Place of meditation) of Bari Imam is also located there with crystal clear water ponds full of Mahseer fish, but fishing is not allowed by the locals.[2]

It is almost possible to go there on a street car, you can also use motor bikes (Trail bike preferably but a 125 will also do). It also passes through a stream. You can also hire a jeep for Rs. 1,500 from the village to take you to Nilan bhotu.
