PAF's Naltar station has emerged quite a world class Ski resort. CPEC is on the way to bring in land based speedy connectivity there too.

@Armstrong are there any thrill seeking activities which are unique to Pakistan?

I'll admit, I was underwhelmed by the article's choices:(. I can do all of these at home (and have - all of them except fishing), so that's not an incentive to plan a trip to Pakistan. Are there any activities which are unique to the region and Pakistan in particular?

There's just no incentive to go to Pakistan when I can do them at home:cry:. Help me find an excuse to plan a trip to Pakistan, please:angel:. It's a really beautiful nation with great food, almost enough reason to plan a trip, but I need more reasons then getting fat:D.

Take a trip to Concordia. It is called throne room of mountain gods. There is nothing like it in the world. Imagine standing with four 8000 meters peaks staring down at you. We are not talking puny hillocks of Sweden here :p:

It's not for the faint hearted. Journey will take its toll. Not all make it to the end.

What greater reason do you need except that I - yes...the Great I - belong to Pakistan ! :smokin:

That it would soon be the seat of power of my Galactic Empire and you can be my purple headed apprentice Darth Freyja ! :azn:

No wait....scratch that last we want the Sith to be feared not chuckled at....heck Master Yoda used to get made fun of all his 900 years for looking like a shorter version of the Grinch...so no...dye your hair to a matte black and then you can be my apprentice ! :unsure:

These Europeans think that their alps are THE mountains. Silly buggers. Just to be among the mountains of Pakistan would be the life time achievement for most around the world.
