There is no doubt in anyone’s mind that the Northern Areas of Pakistan are blessed with untold beauty. They are a sight to behold during any season, yet we mostly hear about Swat, Skardu, Naran Kaghan and everything in between.

Today we want you to see another part of paradise, a hidden gem in Azad Kashmir known as the Shigar Valley. A place of extreme contrasts, where you will find flora and fauna one side and on the other rock mountains that have a stark beauty that amazing to behold.

Take a tour with us and see the enchanting beauty of Shigar Valley and decide for yourself if this is a part of paradise or out of J.R.R Tolkien’s book The Hobbit.
