Deadliest Beautiful Road | killar | Pangi Valley | unfogetble ride on xpulse200

Kishtwar is a municipality in the Kishtwar District in the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir. Kishtwar was carved out as a district from Doda district and started functioning as an independent administrative unit in the year 2007.
Killar to Kishtwar road journey has rightfully been named the most dangerous road in the world. This road has humbled many egos. It’s not for the faint-hearted and most definitely should not be attempted by novice drivers. The road is in dreadful condition and requires strong nerves to negotiate it. With a frightening high mountain trail, the total length of journey is 114 km.
Officially becoming a district in 2007, Kishtwar, is known as the “Land of Sapphire and Saffron”. Virtually cut off from the rest of the world, Kishtwar is stunning and is situated 235 Kms from Jammu. One of the toughest roads in the world leads to this paradise.
This region has pretty much been closed off to mountaineers for political reasons since the early 1990s. However, with the construction of this extremely dangerous road – residents have rejoiced to the opening of their very isolated world to come commercial activity and tourism. A huge salute and shout-out to the Border Roads Organization and J&K PWD, who have done a brilliant job by constructing roads in the middle of nowhere. A record number of people have sacrificed their lives to make this road a reality. Respect the struggle and be grateful for your “adventures” and what all has been staked for you to achieve this!
About the Killar – Kishtwar Road
Part of the National Highway 26, this road runs right along the Chenab river. It’s extremely befuddling to peek over the edge, or even just to see the valleys a couple thousand feet below you. The vertical drop of hundreds of meters is insane – so it might be wise to skip this adventure on a windy day.
In terms of the road itself – it is made of gravel, stones and sand and it’s pretty much kissing the side of a cliff. Also, it is wise to warn you here of the rocks hanging down which end up obstructing your view of oncoming traffic.
This road is located at the eastern extremity of the Kishtwar District of the Jammu region in Jammu and Kashmir. Let me tell you that the road is narrow, windy and has no rails to secure your edging. Also, to add to the complexity – there is a steep gorge of 1000 ft. straight drop! Yes, the views of the valley are from another world – but, let me promise you – you DEFINITELY won’t be looking at them views. Not if you want to survive this epic journey of mammoth presence! This road gives access into Pangi Valley of Himachal Pradesh.
From Dalhousie onwards, you’d be crossing the Sach Pass to reach Killar – this journey in itself is tough and the pass will test your limits. However, after that – the journey keeps upping the ante! You’ll cover the Killar to Kishtwar journey on the toughest road there is!
Tough journeys
Road Conditions
The road is so narrow that only one vehicle can (barely) pass at a time. Also, there are scores of steep inclines and declines. The road is “constructed” of rocks, loose soil, etc. To add to the difficulty, on one side there is 1000 feet freefall into the river Chandrabhaga and deadly mountain cliff hanging on other. The road condition is never constant; as it sees many landslides. One mistake and it can turn out to be disaster. There is a reason why this road has been titled as “One of the most Dangerous Roads in the World” by many travel forums and gurus!
Pangi valley-
Pangi is a tehsil of Chamba, Himachal Pradesh, India. The Pangi valley is a rugged and poorly developed tribal area, as well as one of the most remote areas in Himachal Pradesh state. The Pangi valley is divided into the Saichu, Hudan Bhatori and Sural Bhatori valleys, which are inhabited at elevations of 7,000 feet (2,100 m) to 11,000 feet (3,400 m) above sea level.The language spoken by the Pangi people is Pangwali.
The Pangi Valley was described by Dr. J Hutchison (in 1904) as follows:
"Pangi is unique in its grandeur and beauty: in this respect far surpassing any other portion of Chamba District. The scenery is sublime and imposing, and nature appears in her wildest and grandest moods. Everything is on a stupendous scale. The great river rolls along In a deep and narrow gorge, lashing itself into fury against the adamantine cliffs that confine it. Precipices spring from the brink, in places almost perpendicular, to a height of one or two thousand feet: on the lower ranges are grassy slopes of rich pasture with dense forests of pine and cedar, while high over all, the stern and majestic mountains, piled on one another, attain in altitude of 18,000 to 21,000 feet rising far beyond the line of eternal snow.
