Malika Parbat – 5,291 m (17,354 feet)

Malika Parbat (Queen of the Mountains) is the highest mountain of the Kaghan Valley. The best view of this peak is from Lake Saiful Muluk when on a clear day the pointed peak is mirrored in its deep blue waters. Although it is a low height peak compared to the gigantic mountains of Karakoram, but it is considered a difficult peak due to its steep summit and several hanging glaciers on upper slopes. It is still famous as a virgin peak as no one has successfully climbed it to date. The easiest approach to its base camp is from the Lake Saiful Muluk side.
