Broghil Valley
A remote Upper Chitral adventure region with wide high-altitude landscapes, lakes, traditional villages and a raw mountain travel feel.
Broghil Valley lies deep in Upper Chitral, close to the Pakistan–Afghanistan Wakhan border. It is a high-altitude plateau region with lakes, wide grazing pastures and small Wakhi villages.
This is adventure travel. Roads are rough, distances are long and facilities are basic, so trips need careful planning. Our Pakistan-based team with local destination specialists handles vehicles, permits, timing and local support.
