LOCATION
There are two main locations to go to Mushkpuri Top in Pakistan. If you are in Lahore, there is the best route to Islamabad. First, you need to come to Islamabad, then go first to Bharakahu and then reach Satra Meel, where you can take the Islamabad-Murree Expressway or Kashmir Road. Both roads are the best and have the same routes to reach Mushkpuri Hills.
The Kashmir Road is better in the morning due to less traffic. It is 67.8 km to Mushkpuri Top. But there are so many trucks in the afternoon or evening, which could cause traffic problems. If you choose Kashmir Road for capturing pictures of the mountain views, most of the mountain views can be seen on Kashmir Road.
The Islamabad-Murree Expressway, on the other hand, is a four-lane road that is slightly longer (71.4 km) but generally safer than the Kashmir Road.
The Expressway and Kashmir Road will take you to Mall Road, where you may see many locations such as PC Bhurban, Mall Road, Nathia Gali, and Ayubia. You need to choose the route to Nathia Gali and start driving to reach Mushkpuri Hills.
