Desan Meadows is a breathtaking expanse of alpine meadows high up in the mountains overlooking Kalam. In the summer, it’s blanketed with green grass, while in autumn the grass turns a rusty brown and the trees transition to gold. Desan is the perfect destination for independent trekkers, as the meadows sit at the end of a long and clear Jeep track.
Even better, the track to the meadows begins in Kalam. There are several minor shortcuts that you can take along the way to save time and effort, and they’re generally easy to find, as there will likely be other locals walking up and down the mountain during the day. The difficult part about reaching Desan Meadows is the climb—it’s a long uphill slog, and the highest point is above 3,600 meters (11,800 feet). Breathing isn’t so easy at such altitudes! Spin Khwar Lake Swat valley is one of the lakes in Swat region which is located at a very high altitude in the foot of the tallest peak in the range with a considerable depth.Kundol Dand, is a lake in Swat Valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, which is located in the north of Utror valley at a distance of 20.8 kilometres (12.9 mi) away from kalam. Similarly, there is a well known story about the lake which is that every night in a month, a golden bowl appears in the center of the lake and glistens like moon but no one has ever touched that bowl due to magical powers inside it. Kundol Lake lies in the lap of Hindu kush mountains at an elevation of (9,950 ft), in the north of Utror, encompassed by snow clad mountains and towering trees.
Similarly, the trail to the lake from Ladu is easy to follow as a large stream flows down from the lake, which merges with River Swat in Kalam valley. It leads beside the stream and takes you to the lake. On the way, lush green forests, picturesque spots and gushing waterfalls welcome one's to the region. The mountains around the lake are covered by thick blanket of vegetation that enhances the beauty of the lake very much. The margins of kundol lake serve as the camping site during the summer season for the trekkers.
