@OvaisAlam Aur mujhay rona aaraha hai.

Thank you for liking the thread brother!

Bravo!! Well done brother ....

Although I went to Gorakh Hills and adjoining areas number of times but reading your thread was quite an experience. You were brave enough to take your car up to the top of Gorakh hills which I really appreciate but i wont recommended for new travelers coz its some how dangerous especially with family / kids on board.

[SAV123]

@sirajturk Thanks, brother!

I agree, for inexperienced driver it is not recommended. However, for experienced drivers, it should be a must, I guess.

[sirajturk]

You're right ... experience driver can enjoy the ride up to the hills but one should also kept in mind the performance of car. Climbing on top can damage the clutch plate of your car ....

[SAV123]

Agreed. My Nissan AD is trusted one. It has done Malam Jabba, and Kalam before and now it has added Gorakh Hills to the list. I found it pretty strong for tough and rugged surfaces. And I am somehow in love with Nissan now and am planning to upgrade to Wingroad (e4WD) if I can get hold of a good one.

Believe me I have seen someone caught a 3 feet fish from a pond! a man made small pond that stores rain water in a village near Chakwal. The water wasn't more than 4 feet at the deepest end, what they do is that every now and then they release small baby fish about 2-3 inches long into the pond and once a week they arrive to catch fish with a net that has got big holes so that only a specific size/age fish can be caught. They don't catch more than 6-8 pieces per outing and no one else is allowed to catch fish. That's how they are maintaining a balance.

[SAV123]

I fully agree with you, brother!

And that guy is really smart in his trade.

Thank you, Sir!

How much time it could possibly take from Karachi to Mohen Jo Daro ?

[SAV123]

Ideally, it should not take more than 9 hours including reasonable breaks for lunch, fuel refilling or just stretching legs etc. However, on the safer side, it would be best to start the journey early morning to deal with any contingencies that may occur. If its non-stop driving you can perhaps do it in some 6-7 hours.

[feika]

Easily doable in 7 hours approx, with 1 tea break of 30min at Sehwan.

[SAV123]

Agreed sir!

You're absolutely right if the ride is perfect, otherwise its wise to keep some buffer time to deal with contingencies and just relaxing a little bit. I also encountered an unwanted situation in my journey and starting early in the morning really helped in my case.
