An exciting overland journey from Islamabad over Karakorum Highway to Hunza Valley & Khunjerab Pass, the historic gateway to Indian sub-continent.

As you travel on Karakorum Highway, reputed as eighth wonder of the world, you enjoy fascinating views of challenging peaks rising above 7,000 meters. Nanga Parbat, at 8,125 m is the highest of peaks we see during our journey. Then you arrive at the meeting place of the three highest mountain ranges of the world: The Karakorum, Himalayas and Hindukush.
As you arrive at Khunjerab Pass at 4,733 m you are on the border of not only China & Pakistan, but also of Pamir and Karakorum ranges. A trip to Swat & Peshawar will introduce you to the historic Gandhara Buddhist heritage and traditions of Pathan culture.
