Pir Panjal Range
Distant views of the snow-covered peaks of the outer Himalayan ranges to the northeast.
Mangla Dam
One of the world's largest earth-fill dams, appearing as a massive turquoise expanse mid-flight.
Margalla Hills
The rugged green hills surrounding Islamabad are visible immediately after takeoff.
Jhelum River
The meandering path of the Jhelum river as it flows from the mountains into the plains.
Mirpur & Jhelum Cities
Clear aerial views of the urban settlements surrounding the reservoir and river banks.
Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the Himalayan peaks to the north. On clear days after a rain spell, visibility is exceptional, making the snow-caps visible even on this short duration flight. Sit near the front to avoid wing obstruction of the Mangla reservoir.
