Batrasi | Through the Pines of Hazara

#Batrasi #Hazara #FoodaholicTravellers Just 140 km from Islamabad and only 16 km from Mansehra lies Batrasi, a peaceful mountain destination surrounded by towering pine forests, winding roads, breathtaking viewpoints and a rich history hidden within the hills of Hazara. In this episode of Foodaholic Travellers, we leave the Hazara Motorway behind and journey through Mansehra towards Batrasi. Along the way, we explore scenic mountain roads, local village routes, panoramic viewpoints, golden hour landscapes and some of the most beautiful pine forests in the region. The journey also takes us to the historic Batrasi Dak Bungalow, established in 1901 during the British era. Surrounded by forests and mountain scenery, this remarkable property continues to welcome visitors more than a century later, offering a fascinating glimpse into the region's past. For Pakistanis living abroad in the UK, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Canada, USA, Australia, Germany, Norway and beyond, I hope these journeys bring back memories of home. And for viewers discovering Pakistan for the first time, welcome to another road trip with Foodaholic Travellers. 📍 Batrasi, Mansehra District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan 📏 Distance from Islamabad: Approximately 140 km 📏 Distance from Mansehra: Approximately 16 km 🌲 Pine Forests of Hazara 🏛 Historic Batrasi Dak Bungalow (1907) 🌄 Scenic Mountain Roads & Sunset Views 🎥 Filmed using: • DJI Action 6 Pro • DJI Action 5 Pro • DJI Pocket 3 • DJI Flip If you enjoy cinematic road trips, authentic travel documentaries, scenic drives and discovering the beauty of Pakistan, subscribe to Foodaholic Travellers and join us as we explore Hazara, Murree, Galiyat, Kashmir, Chitral, Gilgit-Baltistan and beyond. 📌 New travel films every week. #Batrasi #Hazara #Mansehra #FoodaholicTravellers #PakistanTravel #KPK #NorthernPakistan #PineForest #TravelPakistan #PakistanRoadTrips -------------------------------------------------- CHAPTERS 00:00 Preview 00:27 The Journey Begins 00:28 Introduction 00:41 Hazara Motorway 01:22 Toll Plaza 02:09 Sabzi Mandi Turn 02:34 Turn to Old KKH 03:10 Lari Adda Turn 04:02 Mansehra-Balakot Road 04:49 First Drone View 05:01 Leaving Mansehra Traffic Behind 05:30 Turn Towards Batrasi & Garhi Habibullah 05:57 Pakistan Scouts Cadet College Batrasi 07:13 First Stop 07:59 Testing the Bolan's Limits 08:02 Pine-Clad Mountain Road 08:27 Fresh Sugarcane Juice Stop 09:36 Another Stop, Another View 10:40 Drone Viewpoint 11:05 The Beautiful Forest Road 11:26 Forest Along the Roadside 12:09 Local Village Routes 12:22 Mountain Turn 13:28 Scenic Stop 13:43 The Hike Begins 14:20 Reaching the Top 14:59 Drone Descending Through the Hills 15:34 Natural Stone Seats 15:58 Walk Through the Forest 16:19 Drone View 16:27 Back On The Road 16:55 Settling Sun 17:39 Golden Hour 17:46 Stone Formation 17:59 Scenic Forest Road 18:30 Turn Towards Batrasi Dak Bungalow 18:53 Beautiful Sunset 19:24 Batrasi Dak Bungalow 19:38 Entering The Property 19:51 Top View Of The Dak Bungalow 20:25 History Of The Dak Bungalow 21:07 Hiking Trail Views 21:49 Smaller Cottage 22:47 Main Cottage 23:56 Goodbye Batrasi -------------------------------------------------- Foodaholic Travellers Exploring Pakistan One Journey At A Time
