Mahandri is a village in the Kaghan Valley in the Mansehra District of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. There is a road from Balakot that ascends along the Kunhar River through lovely forests to Mahandri and to the villages of Paras, Shinu and Jared. A trekking track to reach Ansoo Lake begins from Mahandri, which is 40 km below Naran Village, but this is an alternative to the Lake Saiful Muluk route
