Mahudand Lake is situated at 2,865 meters above sea level and is surrounded by dense woods and meadows. The banks of the lake are lined with pine trees, which enhance its beauty. Lake water is incredibly cool, and the views are simply stunning.
The lake primarily receives water from glaciers melting in the Hindu Kush mountains and nearby springs, while a major left tributary of the River Swat flows through it.
