Actually Naran is a town of Kaghan Valley, Mansehra  NWFP Province Pakistan. Mostly people stay here for going to famous spots like Lake Saif-ul-Malook and Lalazar, Lalusar Lake, and Babusar Top. Naran Valley is very beautiful.

Aftere spending 2 days my next destination was Lalusar Lake and Babusar top. Lulusar lake is popular tourist attraction in Kaghan valley. Lulusar Lake is at 3,410 m height and it is the primary headwaters of the Kunhar River. It flows in whole Kaghan Valley and the Naran Valley, passing Jalkhad, Kaghan, Paras and then Balakot city. it is in the way of Babusar top. Babusar Top is only a very beautiful journey instead of a destination. it is the highest point in Kaghan valley. When I awoke early in the morning near about 6:30am i saw some boys were doing bargaining with driver of jeep for lalusar lake and babusar Top. I told them I want to join your group and I will contribute for jeep ride with all of you after some time thinking they agreed and now I was again with strangers in stranger land but I think my personality is friendly so I did not feel any hesitation and after some time we all are just like a good friend they all were great.
