Gilgit-Baltistan · 2,300 – 4,700 m
A side valley almost nobody drives into.
The place
Yasin branches north off the Ghizer road and stops at the Darkot Pass, which is how you would walk to Broghil if you had a week and a permit.
There is no tourism infrastructure to speak of. That is the point of it. Burushaski and Khowar are both spoken, the polo ground is the centre of the village, and the walking above Darkot is superb and completely unmarked.
