Khunjerab Pass

Khunjerab Pass, located at an elevation of 4,693 meters, is the highest paved international border crossing in the world. It connects Gilgit-Baltistan (Pakistan) with Xinjiang (China) via the Karakoram Highway.

Khunjerab National Park: Home to the rare Marco Polo sheep and snow leopards.

Pak-China Border Gate: The iconic structure where visitors take photos.

Sost Border Town: The last major town on the Pakistani side.

Due to high altitude and extreme weather, there is no conventional nightlife. Activities are limited to stargazing, photography of the pristine landscape, and wildlife spotting within the national park area.

Visitors must travel from Hunza/Sost. It is highly recommended to start the journey early in the morning. Due to high altitude, travelers are advised to stay hydrated and take precautions for altitude sickness. Always check road accessibility as the pass may close during heavy snowfall.
