Pakistan’s ideal season for travel
Pakistan offers a wide variety of landscapes, from flat, sea-level deserts to 8,000-meter peaks, so every season will bring its unique challenges.
Winters are the finest season to travel to the country’s south, particularly Sindh province. Even though those areas lack the mountains for which Pakistan is known, they are the most religiously diverse in the country.
However, the majority of the mountains in northern Pakistan are completely impassable during the winter. The Karakoram Highway is still a viable route to reach the Northern Areas, but you won’t be able to visit any side valleys.
The greatest time of year to travel to the Northern Areas, especially if you enjoy mountain hiking.
