Murree Tours 2026, Hill Station Packages from Islamabad
Mall Road, Patriata chairlift, New Murree (Bhurban), Nathia Gali and the Galiyat pine forests, the easiest hill-station getaway from Islamabad and Lahore.
Murree is Pakistan's most accessible hill station, a 2-hour drive from Islamabad on a fully paved motorway, sitting at 2,291m with cool summers, snowy winters and a British-era Mall Road that has been the country's honeymoon and family favorite for over a century.
Because Murree is so close to the capital, our Murree tour packages 2026 work as short 2–3 day weekend trips, extended 4–5 day Galiyat loops (Nathia Gali, Ayubia, Dunga Gali) or as the first leg of a longer Kashmir or Naran itinerary.
Why Travelers Choose Murree
Three reasons Murree still dominates domestic tourism: fast access (Islamabad–Murree Expressway cuts the drive to under 2 hours), reliable snowfall in December–February, and a dense cluster of family-friendly attractions within a 30 km radius, Patriata chairlift, Pindi Point cable car, Mall Road, Bhurban and the Galiyat pine belt.
Top Things to Do in Murree
Mall Road
Central promenade lined with cafes, kashmiri shawl shops and the historic GPO, walk it in the evening when the lights come on.
Patriata (New Murree)
Chairlift + cable car combo climbing to 2,377m through thick pine forest, the highest public viewpoint in the Murree area.
Pindi Point Cable Car
Shorter cable-car ride with panoramic views of Rawalpindi plains on clear days.
Kashmir Point
East-facing viewpoint overlooking the foothills of Azad Kashmir, best at sunrise.
Nathia Gali and the Galiyat Loop
Just 35 km north of Murree, the Galiyat (Nathia Gali, Ayubia, Dunga Gali, Khanspur) offer denser pine forests, the famous Ayubia National Park pipeline walk, and cooler temperatures than Murree itself. Most of our 2026 packages combine Murree with a 1–2 night Nathia Gali stay for a proper hill-country experience.

- December to mid-February is peak snow season
- Snow chains and 4x4 recommended for private cars on high days
