Pamir Serai

Guest house

Pamir Serai guest houses, located in the pristine and picturesque Chapursan Valley, are managed by the Alam Jan Dario's family. They are situated in the village of Zood Khun and on the meadow of Baba Ghundi Ziarat. Access to Chapursan Valley is from Sost, on the Karakoram Highway, if you are coming from the south before crossing the Chinese border or before exploring the northernmost parts of Pakistan. It is also a good stop if you are just arriving from China.

Pamir Serai Guest House in Baba Ghundi - Altitude 4,000 m

It is simple accommodation in a shepherd's house in an alpine pasture near the important Ziarat (shrine) of Saint Baba Ghundi. An hour's drive from Zoodkhun, it is at the end of the Chapursan valley and at the bottom of the Irshad Pass which connects the Afghan Wakhan. Accommodation can be arranged in advance with Pamir Serai guesthouses in Zoodkhun. Due to border proximity, foreigners might need to get a preliminary approval from the Pakistani administration. This must be verified beforehand.
