The Afghanistan Pamir Mountains are one of the most remote and beautiful regions of the planet. Populated in the Little Pamir by a small community of Kyrgyz, it’s a stunning 4 day hike up and down the side of mountains and across valley plains to reach them.
It feels like you are in a fantasy movie with the scenery and vibe.

There are so many smaller stories from the 10 days spent in the Pamir Region that roll into one huge adventure. These 30 photos from that journey will give you a rough idea of what some of it is like.
I recommend using SafetyWing Travel Insurance for your trip, just in case, it’s best to be prepared.
If you are interested in doing this yourself I have written a long and detailed post on how you can here.

Great, that place is looking so beautiful and it have so many good things to visit. You captured awesome photos of that beautiful palce.
Absolutely beautiful! This is a hike we’d love to do, completely off the beaten path! I like the different hot and cold landscapes, or was it always cold? Thanks for the inspiration!
It’s an awesome hike! It was warm in the day and cold at night. That was end of September/early October. I may be running a tour to Afghanistan this summer. Do you think that would be something that may interest you? Want to get feedback. You can send me email from top of website in menu bar.
We’d definitely be interested, what’s the situation with visas? (We’re from the UK)
I got my visa at the Afghanistan consulate in Tajikistan and was ok. If you two are really interested send me an email and lets talk about Afghanistan 🙂 – jonny@backpackingman.com
