Pakistan
On our overland journey from Finland to India, we crossed from China’s Xinjiang into North-Pakistan.
We traveled in Pakistan for 19 days in October & November 2019. We had stops in Gilgit-Baltistan, mostly along the Karakoram Highway. Our last stop in Pakistan was Lahore, from where we entered into India through Wagah Border.
Later on, when we have time from all the traveling, we will write tips and infos about overland travel in Pakistan on this page.
In the meanwhile, you can read all our stories from Pakistan below.
