Jahaz Banda ({{langx|ps|{{nq|جازبانډه}}}}), also spelt as Jaz Banda, is a large meadow in the upper reaches of Kumrat Valley in Upper Dir District of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. It is located at an altitude of 3,100 m above sea level. The region is surrounded by snow-clad mountains, towering trees, and green pastures.

The main road extends northward through Upper Dir, eventually arriving at Darwaza village. At this point, the road diverges, branching off into Lamoti village. From there, it ascends toward Jandrai village via a passable but unpaved road suitable for jeeps. Beyond this point, the journey transitions to a trek, leading to Jahaz Banda.{{cite web| url = http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x11tc4p_jahaz-banda-katoora-lake-intro-with-mr-rana-sher-dil_travel| title = Jahaz Banda & Katoora Lake intro with Mr Rana Sher Dil - video Dailymotion}}
