Hi everyone,
I have been lurking on the forum for quite some time, reading various trip reports. The threads contain alot of information but I was hoping to get answers to a few specific questions.
I am planning to land in islamabad on 20-21 Dec 2017 which will be my starting point. I have never myself travelled up north before therefore a total noob! I am from Karachi.
Q1) I have a non-pakistani friend (female) accompanying me. How safe is it to travel up north for a foreigner?
Q2) I keep on hearing that some of the roads are closed due to the weather. while I do not plan to travel to the extreme remote areas, could you advise if this is true?
Q3) I want to travel for 4-5 days around the region. What places would you suggest that I can cover in such period?
Q4) We will be 4-6 people, looking to go to places that are safe for family (no children)
