Gilgit

Gilgit, à 1500 m d’altitude, c’est une ville bruyante quadrillée par l’armée. Pourtant en s’éloignant un peu du centre elle offre de réelles surprises, de chemins tranquilles le long de canaux, ou les locaux prennent le temps de discuter. L’été, la chaleur y est étouffante, invitant à se rendre un peu plus haut, vers Hunza.

Diamir : Ce secteur donne son nom à la fameuse face du Nanga Parbat, il comprend une partie de la vallée de l’Indus au sud de Gilgit.

Ghizar : La région la plus au nord ouest, qui flirte avec l’Afghanistan et le district de Chitral. Comparé au reste du Nord Pakistan ces vallées sont délaissées, peut être à cause du fait qu’il n’y ait aucun pic à plus de 7000 m, et peu de glaciers. Les vallées de Ishkoman et de Yasin sont au coeur de ce secteur, elles sont facilement accessibles depuis Gilgit.
