Attabad Lake, also known as Gojal Lake, is a stunningly beautiful lake located in the Hunza Valley of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. Formed in January 2010 after a massive landslide blocked the flow of the Hunza River, this natural disaster resulted in the creation of the lake. Attabad Lake stretches over 21 kilometers in length and reaches depths of up to 109 meters. The turquoise waters of the lake, surrounded by majestic mountains, make it a popular destination for tourists seeking scenic beauty and adventure. Activities such as boating, fishing, and jet skiing are common, and the lake has significantly contributed to the local tourism industry.
