EXPLORING SKARDU, GILGIT BALTISTAN.

Image
I decided to arrive Skardu by air and here is the link to that scenic flight CLICK HERE   Though it is easily accessible by road also. But to avoid long hours by road I opt for the PIA air safari scenic flight.   In Fact I have already travelled Karakoram highways during my earlier tour to Hunza.  You can also read my road journey on KKH here. My Epic Road Journey on KKH.  Skardu is located in the extreme north of Pakistan connecting the western Himalaya range of mountains. It's famous as the land of mountains, lakes and waterfalls. It's like a paradise for mountaineers. Multiple options for mountaineers and hiking opportunities.  k2, the second highest peak in the world is located here. Apart from that Masherbrum, Nanga parbat located in same region.  During my stay, I visited some of the most beautiful lakes, valleys, waterfalls of Skardu. Details are given below. But I was pretty much happier with a cherry on top and that was none other than visitin...

ENROUTE TO SKARDU. A SCENIC MOUNTAIN FLIGHT.

Image
I planned my trip to Skardu by air and I was amazed to see how comfortably it took around 60 min from Faisalabad to Skardu and return flight take even 40 min to Islamabad. Air travel is the most feasible way of arriving here. Due to long road journey we ultimately decide to have a flight. Northern areas of Pakistan are one of the adventurous destination. I was long been waiting to explore the Giant deosai plain. Have a look at the scenic flight here 👇 Though road travelling has own adventure but the flight was far more scenic in Skardu case. Because it was more than an ordinary flight. It was in fact an air safari, where the captain of PIA "PAKISTAN AIRLINES AIR SAFARI FLIGHT TO SKARDU" continuously keep you updating about the flight and you may get the chance to capture some unforgettable pictures of Mighty "NANGA PARBAT", the 9th highest mountain in the world and Pakistan's most visited lake " LAKE SAIFUL MALOOK" I would definitely recommend PIA fl...

TRAVEL VIBES AND BREATHTAKING VIEWS

Image
Aerial photography during the flights is always the beginning of a beautiful journey especially for those who love nature and travel for pleasure seeking. For me it's always been a start of wonderful journey if i could manage to capture some of the beautiful scenes from a plane window. There is something really mesmerizing while looking out an airplane window not only during the take-off and landing but also during the whole journey if you keep looking frequently outside the window not to miss certain breathtaking and gorgeous clouds floating, sunsets and sunrises. No doubt it's literally a chance to sailing into clouds. It's a luck if you get a bright sunny clear day and have a chance to click your destination from above. Such a chance i got during a flight to Dubai, where i could capture the high rise buildings Burj Khalifa from sky and glimpse of arabian sea. Happiness if looking down on your coming destination from your plane window ...
