Many streams flow through the valley producing cascades rapids falls and natural swimming pools.
These pools are very popular among the local youths not only for swimming but also for fishing. The fertile land and mild climate produces a variety of crops or trees especially mango trees.
Farming is still the major source of staple food for the area wheat and corn are grown annually.
The high literacy rate has
improved the overall living standards of the people. Because most of the people work for the government or overseas especially in Middle East and Europe dependence on farming for income has greatly reduced but people still cultivate the land for food.
Many birds and animals are found in the valley including peacocks partridges quail birds of paradise falcons and eagles.
The enclosing Reech Pahari serves as the sanctuary for many animal species including tigers hyenas wolves jackals Foxes pythons monkeys deer stags and impalas. The valley is 
home to many hamlets of which Bandi Pi
nd Gurah Piana Paratiand Ghawalian are the best known.

Borith Lake ....
---------------
Borith Lake is a lake in the Northern Areas of Pakistan. Borith is a hamlet in the surroundings of the Borith Lake to the northwest of Hussaini, a village near Gulmit, Gojal, in the upper Hunza. The altitude of Borith is roughly 2,600 m 8500 feeabove sea levelA short trek of one hour each way will bring you to Ghulkin Glacier.
Just follow the trekking route towards Borith Lake as far as the edge of the glacier and return by the same route.
Bagnator is situated on the Abbottabad-Nathi Gali Road.
beautiful and lush green valley full of pines and marvellous scenery.
The lake can be reached via a 2 km unpaved jeep route from Hussaini village which lies adjacent to Ghulkin village.
It is also accessible by a 2-3 hour trekking route directly from Ghuylkin across the end of the Ghulkin glacier.
The site is an important sanctuary for migrating wildfowl and is a must to be included in the itinerary of bird-watchers and nature lovers.
To witness the large number of duck
s arriving from the warmer parts of southern Pakistan, one should visit between the months of March and June. The birds rest here on their way northwards to the cooler waters of central Asia.
Similarly, from September–November, the spectacle occurs in reverse with the onset of winter towards the north.
A short trek of one hour each way will bring you to Ghulkin Glacier. Just follow the trekking route towards Borith Lake as far as the edge of the

For the more adventurous, a longer walk to Passu Gar Glacier is another attraction, crossing both Ghulkin Glacier and Borith Lake. Having crossed Ghulkin Glacier by the same route, continue on the southern side of Borith Lake past the settlement of Borith Bala and the now deserted settlement of Shahabad. The lack of a continuous water supply led to the desertification of this village many years a
go. On reaching Passu Gar, one finds a spectacular view of all the icy crenellations along its length. The walk takes about 4–5 hours form Ghulkin to PASSU From the glacier, a path leads down to the Karakorum Highway and the Shisper Hotel.
