TREKKING IN PAKISTAN
Pakistan is a paradise for trekkers. Most of the trekking routes lie in the northern mountains of the Hindukush, the Karakorams and the Himalayas. For most of the treks, trekking season is between May to October.
The Ministry of Tourism, Government of Pakistan, has defined trekking as walking below 6000 m. It has designated three zones for trekking; Open, Restricted and Closed.
Foreigners may trek anywhere in the Open zones without a permit or services of a licensed mountain guide.
