. .
Nathia Gali, located at 2,500 m (8,200 ft) height from the sea level,is a hill station in Hazara Division, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province. It is at two hours drive away from Islamabad. It is famous for its scenic beauty, hiking tracks and pleasant weather. It is situated at one hour’s drive away from both Murree and Abbottabad, lying midway between these two places.
“Mukshpuri” and “Miranjani” are the two nearby high peaks both of which are favourite for hikers. The Mukshpuri track is wide and easy to hike. The Miranjani track, is a bit more difficult as it has steeper height and the track is narrow at some places. Both of these peaks could be reached within 2 to 3 hours by hiking.
Nathia Gali has been declared a wildlife sanctuary by the Government. Monkeys, leopards and variety of other birds and animals are common in the forest surrounding Nathia Gali. Monkeys foraging on trees is not an uncommon sight in Nathia Gali.
