About

Daral Lake (Urdu: درال جھیل) is an alpine lake within the Swat Kohistan region of the Swat Valley in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. It is situated to the northeast of Saidgai Lake. "Daral" is a Dardic word and literally means "stream" or "spring water".

The lake appears as a giant amoeba in shape. Near the lake, there is an ancient mosque where shepherds and visitors offer their prayers and use it as a resting place for the night.
