Passu Travel Guide

Passu has two beautiful glaciers, known as Passu glacier and Batura glacier, these are the longest glaciers in Pakistan. It also has very nice area for Trekking.  Passu, provide comfortable and safe camping site to tourists. Passu is roughly halfway between Hunza valley and the border with China. It is an excellent place to stop by for a while for shopping and to make a short hike. If you want to cross the border to China, you can't do it in a day from Karimabad anyway, because the only bus leaves to China that is early in the morning from the border and you need to get the tickets a day in advance.

In 5 KM walk from Passu, the sight scenes are breathtaking. There is a bridge over Hunza River that you can cross to goto the other side of the river, but that bridge is rather in a bad shape. The trail trek you find that is easy, but not very wide. If you have fear of heights and the water flow in the Hunza River is NOT too high, you might prefer walking in the river bed to cross it. 

If you feel like trekking you may cross the Hunza River and visit some of the villages located on the other side of the river.
