It is also known for its eye-catching beauty which includes the lush green landscape and the freshwater lakes as well as the amazing peaks surrounding this valley. The peaks covering this area are the Himalayas and the Hindukush range of peaks. The Name Ghizer is extracted from the word GHERZ which means refugees in Khowar. The history behind this name is that the people of Chitral migrated to Gupis due to the injustice of the Mehtar of Chitral so this place was named GHERZ due to the refugees from Chitral who settled here were called Gherzic. When Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was in a ruling he abolished the FCR and Rajgi system and made Ghizer a district that comprised tehsils. On this trip to Ghizer Valley, we will explore the whole area of Ghizer including Khalti Lake, the beautiful Phandar valley, and Gupis Valley.
