Kalam
Kalam is a valley located 99 kilometers (62 mi) from Mingora in the northern upper section of Swat valley along the bank of Swat River in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. The Swat River was formed as a result of the confluence of two major tributaries of the Ushu river and Gabral river.
Perhaps the most well-known treasure of a site to visit in Swat is Kalam Valley. Kalam is home to stunning lakes, rising mountains, scenic valleys, lush green woodlands, and other natural wonders. These natural features make Kalam the most attractive spot on everyone's bucket list when they visit Swat. The valley provides every convenience for adventure seekers and nature lovers, yet exploring the valley's approximately 50 glacial lakes necessitates trekking through narrow bends and high cliffs. However, on the north side of the valley, Ushu Forest is a fantastic tourist destination.
