Putun Das Trek
Besides nature's other blessings in terms of high mountains (Putun Das), high pasturelands and glaciers, one of the most famous steppes and plateaux of Shimshal Pamir, Khunzhrav National Park and Batura Glacier are also situated here. At the local level, Gojal is without a doubt, the backbone of Hunza while at the national level, it is the only gateway between Pakistan and China (also one of the most important and alternative gateways to Central Asia).
