The Hindukush lies beyond the reach of the monsoon and, is a
deserted, arid mountain scape visited by very few. The scenic
Tirich Valley is very fertile, and populated with several small
villages. A spectacular drive to Uthul takes us to the jump off
point, and trekking across Zani Pass (3886m) provides excellent
views of Hindukush and the Hindu Raj Ranges. Passing through the
villages of Atak and Bandak, one arrives Shogor, at the foot of
the Tirich Glacier. A free day will enable us to explore and
will, allow for fantastic views of Tirich Mir (7708m), Istoro
Nal (7403m) and heavily crevassed upper Tirich Glacier. Visit
legendary Kafir Kalash of Chitral, and the historical Khyber
Pass, before your return journey to Islamabad via Taxila. A
lifetime memory of a very remote, undisturbed wilderness.
