Gilgit Baltistan -> Hunza -> Gojal
09:00 - 17:00
Khunjerab Pass, at 4,693 meters in the Karakoram Mountains, is the world’s highest paved international border crossing, connecting Pakistan’s Gilgit-Baltistan with China’s Xinjiang region via the Karakoram Highway (KKH), dubbed the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” A key part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), it facilitates trade and tourism while offering stunning views of snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and Khunjerab National Park’s wildlife, including snow leopards and Marco Polo sheep. Formed in 1982 and historically part of the Silk Road, the pass—meaning “Valley of Blood” in Wakhi—combines adventure, history, and natural beauty, though over-tourism and altitude risks require careful planning. Its monumental gate and year-round snow make it a bucket-list destination for thrill-seekers and nature lovers.
