About

Kharfaq Lake is a high-altitude natural lake located in the Karakoram mountain range in Kharfaq, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. July and August are the best months to visit the lake. The lake's water level starts rising in May with increased snowmelt and reaches it maximum level in the middle of July. In winter, the snow covers the whole lake in its whiteness.
