Physical Features of Hazara

1. Mountains.

The distinctive physical feature of Hazara Division is its forest-rich mountains, full of trees of different kinds and snow (Great natural attraction for local as well as International visitors and tourists), especially in the winter. These mountains vary in height i.e, from 4,000 feet to 17,000 feet and are naturally divided into two i.e, the western and the eastern range. These run down either side of the Division with a trend generally from the north-east to the south-west and work like a dividing line between Hazara, Azad Kashmir, Murree, Rawalpindi, Swat and Malakand on their respective sides.

Besides other, Malka-Parbat (17000feet) Musa_ka_Mussala (13379 feet) Bhingra (8500 feet) Biliana (6192) Tanglai, Serri and Phambla are important peaks in this area, and these mountains, besides providing healthy environments,  are a constant source of income to the country.
