Shandur Pass

Famous for hosting the highest polo ground in the world at 3,700 meters, Shandur Pass connects Gilgit-Baltistan with Chitral. Visitors can experience the electrifying annual Shandur Polo Festival every July, where teams from Gilgit and Chitral play traditional freestyle polo. The best time to visit is mid-summer when the high-altitude pass is free from heavy snow.
