Malam Jabba Ski Resort

This month we conducted a survey with travellers from Islamabad. We found that 55 percent of those who knew about Malam Jabba believed it was only open in winter.

But this is how beautiful it actually looks in summer. Lush green valleys, pleasant weather, and breathtaking mountain views.

Malam Jabba is truly a year round destination.

If there’s one thing that you should come to Malam Jabba for, it’s the summer rains 🌧️

Peak daisy season is in full swing at Malam Jabba Ski Resort right now. The slopes are covered in beautiful wild daisies, and the forest hiking trails are just as stunning, bursting with colorful wildflowers.

This is truly one of the most beautiful times to visit the mountain, a perfect mix of green meadows, flowers, and that fresh mountain air.

If you’re thinking of coming up, send us a message and we’ll help you plan your trip.

Escape the summer heat and head to Malam Jabba.

Cool mountain air, cloudy skies, lush green valleys, and panoramic forest views make this the perfect season to visit.

Experience summer surrounded by nature, peace, and the beauty of the mountains.

Malam Jabba Ski Resort sits at 2,804 metres above sea level in the Hindu Kush mountains of Swat Valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. It is Pakistan’s premier mountain resort and one of the most extraordinary places in the country regardless of the season you visit.

In winter the resort receives heavy snowfall from December through February and offers skiing, snowboarding, chairlift rides and a full range of snow sports on slopes that sit between 2,469 and 2,670 metres. In summer the snow melts and the mountains turn green in a way that most people who have only seen the winter version of Malam Jabba are completely unprepared for. From May through August the resort and the surrounding valleys get greener every week until the landscape looks nothing like it did in winter.

The resort offers a chairlift, zipline, giant swing, sling shot and hiking trails that take you above the tree line with views across the entire Swat Valley. Pearl Continental Malam Jabba is the only five star hotel in the mountains of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and sits right at the resort. Samson’s Inn is three kilometres away for those who want a more affordable stay.

Getting here is straightforward. From Islamabad it is approximately 300 kilometres via the M1 Motorway and Swat Motorway to Chakdara, then along the N95 to Manglor where you turn right for the final climb to the resort. The drive takes around five hours.

Malam Jabba is a year round destination and summer is the season most people have not discovered yet.

This is a timelapse of a summer evening at Malam Jabba Ski Resort in Swat Valley, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The resort sits at 2,600 metres in the Hindu Kush and at golden hour the clouds above the peaks move and change colour in a way that makes everything else stop.

Some places don’t just end the day, they redefine it.

At Malam Jabba, the last light spills across the Hindu Kush peaks, painting the sky in shades no camera can truly capture. From 2,600 metres above sea level, every sunset feels less like a view and more like a moment suspended in time.
