Mahodand Lake
Similarly, the banks of Mahodand Lake are covered by pines and pastures that serve as a camping site during the summer.The Mahodand Lake is fed by melting glaciers and springs of the Hindu Kush mountain and gives rise to Ushu Khwar, the major left tributary of the Swat River.In the summers, the basin of the lake is surrounded by a sheet of alpine flowers like geum, blue poppy, potentilla and gentian.Similarly, the lake contains abounding trout fish, which furnish ideal opportunity for angling, but catching is allowed only to licensed anglers.The waters of Mahodand lake are divided into a series of small and large streams, which once swarmed with brown and rainbow trout introduced by the former ruler of Swat State.
