Location of Camp Village Kaghan Required

[namohsin]

I have planned to visit Kaghan, Naran, Shogran etc. from 19-06-2014 to 23-06-2014 with my family, kids from 10 to 14 years, going on Public Transport from Lahore to Mansehra starting at 11:45 p.m. on 18-06-2014 (Wednesday) through Niazi Coach, wanna stay in Kaghan. One of my colleagues told me about a CAMP VILLAGE near Kaghan as it will be fun for the kids to stay in camp near the river. Can any body guide me about any camp village etc. which should be safe living with family. I will be highly obliged.

Camp village is in Naran not in Kaghan. Kaghan is a little town and Naran is main attraction in Kaghan Valley.
When you will inter in Naran you can see Camp/Tent village on your right side.

here is pic from my last year trip just before entering into main Naran, and those little white and colorful tops are actually camps.. some were very far from main naran bazar so you better visit the closest one so your family can easily roam around into bazar and restuarant.

Any idea about the rate of camping over there?

The camp village is just at the start of Naran, but it is not recommended for families. Mostly trekkers and student groups who don't have budget for a hotel, use the camping tents. Bathroom facilities are not good, hygiene can be a problem. For a family, it is better to book a hotel room in a hotel that has a big lawn. You can ask their permission for setting up camp in the lawn if they allow.

If you are looking for adventure, you can just rent a camp for the night from Naran bazaar and set it up anywhere you wish.

Excellent place for a day trip. There is a small govt owned forest rest house too but its not in best condition so staying with family is not advised. So if you go there in morning and return to Paras or Shoogran in evening, that will be good experience.

Route is simple, Unlike other attractions of Kaghan valley, Sharan Forest is present on other side of River Kunhar. So from Paras, you have to cross the bridge and take the very same road which leads to Sharan Forest.

Here is link to my thread of Sharan Forest trip: https://www.pakwheels.com/forums/road-trips-vacations/208981-sharan-forest-kaghan-valley
