It's mainly populated during summer. It attracts families and explorers alike. You should not miss a trip to Forest Rest House. Most of the people sit and relax in its huge lush green lawns. Entry might be restricted when senior officials visit or stay at rest houses. Views of Siri Paye and 'Musa ka Musala Peak' are really nice from the lawns of the rest house.Shogran is a beautiful plateau with stunning views.
