Lower Himalayan Range

Encyclopedia : L : LO : LOW : Lower Himalayan Range

---

The Lower Himalayan Range (also known as the Lesser Himalayan Range) lies north of the Sub-Himalayan Range and south of the Great Himalayas. The height of the mountains varies between 1800 to 4600 meters. Thousands of years of folding, faulting and overthrusting has led to the formation of these mountains. These mountains lie just north of the Rawalpindi district covering the districts of Batgram, Mansehra and Abbottabad. These mountains are also home to Pakistan's important hill stations like Murree, Ghora Gali and Nathia Gali. It snows here during a few months of the year but there aren't any glaciers found in this region.
