Starting Location
An overnight drive from Islamabad deposits you at the turquoise Neelam River by dawn. Breakfast in Keran, then a jeep track climbs to car-free Arrang Kel — a meadow village perched above clouds, ringed by silver firs and snow peaks. Explore the centuries-old wooden houses, walk into the forest the next morning, then descend to Upper Neelam for a final night before the return. Three days, two valleys, zero mobile signal — exactly enough.
Depart Islamabad at midnight and drive through the night, crossing into Azad Kashmir and following the Neelam River upstream. Arrive in Keran at dawn for breakfast beside the turquoise river — the Indian-held bank visible across the water. A jeep track then climbs steeply from the valley floor to car-free Arrang Kel, arriving in time for lunch. Spend the afternoon exploring the ancient wooden houses and meadow paths of the village before settling in for dinner and an early night under a sky full of stars.

Return for lunch at the guesthouse, then descend back toward Keran in the afternoon and continue upstream to Upper Neelam, arriving at Green Village Resort as evening falls over the river.
