Chitral is at the northwestern border with Afghanistan and is home to the precipitous mountains of the Hindukush. This range is different from the Himalayas and Karakoram and since there are no 8000m peaks here in the Hindukush mountain range. However Tirich Mir is the highest Peak at 7708m in the Hindukush range and its accompanying peaks like Noshaq (7492m), Istoro Nal (7403m) and Saraghrar (7338m) command respect.

 

Beauty of Chitral Valley lies as much in its rustic, mountainous terrain, as in its warm hearted and friendly inhabitants.
