Valley here splits into two, with Utror towards the west and Ushu in the east. Kandol Lake is more ideal for a getaway from summer crowds, starting with a short jeep ride and ending with pin loop trek along the stream.
Summer treks from Ushu connects Swat to Ghizer valley over Dadarili Pass ( 5030m ) and to Chitral over Kachikani Pass ( 4766m ).
A jeep track along Utror valley connects Kalam to Kumrat over Budawai Pass ( rarely open in summers ), even if closed a this journey deep into Utror valley is a scenic day trip from Kalam.
