Closer from Peshawar than from Karachi or Lahore

Khushab sits in western Punjab, which puts it far nearer Peshawar than the Punjab cities most travellers assume. Karachi to Khushab is sixteen hours and Lahore around five. From Peshawar it is six to seven, routed down through Attock and Mianwali rather than east to the motorway, and the western specialists serve that road well.


What is nearby

Khushab, Jauharabad and the lakes

Khushab district holds the Soan valley, a green pocket in the Salt Range with two salt lakes.

SOAN VALLEY

North of the town

Khabeki and Uchhali lakes sit in the valley, reached by local road rather than scheduled transport.

JAUHARABAD

The district headquarters

Close by and served by the same regional transport.

MIANWALI

West

On the Indus and on the same New Khan and Niazi networks, an hour or so away.

The western road, not the motorway

Most Peshawar to Punjab traffic goes east through Islamabad to the motorway. This corridor runs south through Attock and Mianwali instead, which is why the western specialists serve it better than the national brands and why journey times here are shorter than the map might suggest.
