Khan Sb, your work at Skardu is benefiting us a lot. Thanks for the update about Babusar. It appears this road will be completed this year.

Thanks a lot. Yes, only 6 or 7 kilometers of the road is not metalled. I hope that FWO will complete the remaining work this year.

This land slide also occurred last week and i had to stay for 24 hrs on road. all night in the car with kids.

[aukhan75]

what is the ideal speed for driving on roads like these? Because it looks these roads are more for visual enjoyment then for driving on them. it is a very beautifull photo.

Thanks. Sir, you are right. Chilas-Babusar-Naran route is really scenic. You become spellbound due to the beauty of the route and you start driving slowly and make a lot of stopovers.

Thanks a lot Kashif Bhai. I have tried to give every detail about the route as Pakwheels forum was flooded with questions about this route. Hope my little effort will help people.

AoA SUkhan Bhai,

What an great adventure, just amazing courage, scenery and a life time experience and education for the family.

Wonder of the world. The biggest engineering projects since the building of the Great Pyramids, the Karakoram Highway connects China’s ancient city of Kashgar with Rawalpindi and Islamabad, a new perspective in what it means to be “Chinese” & "Pakistani".

Sometime in the future when others will ply the Karakoram Highway, little will they realize the amount of sweat, courage, dedications, encourage and human sacrifice that has gone into the making of this road but as you drive along, tarry a little to say a short prayer for those silent brave men of the Pakistan Army, who gave their lives to realize a dream know as THE KARAKORUM HIGHWAY”

Best Wishes.
Rehan
