Road Trip World's Most Dangerous Road Shimshal Valley Pakistan 2020

Road Trip World's Most Dangerous Road Shimshal Valley Pakistan. The Shimshal Valley is approximately four hours' drive from Passu Hunza. It is 55 Km from Passu KKH. The road to Shimshal leaves the KKH at the Batura Glacier and crosses the Hunza River on a suspension bridge, and then enters a narrow gorge. It is a Police Check post and I entered my Motorbike Registration Number. To the east of Shimshal lies China via the Pamir Pass. and Baltistan to the south. The Shimshal Valley Road is a spectacular and terrific curvy mountainous road that rarely permits speeds over 10km/h. Located in Gojal, Hunza–Nagar District in the Pakistan-administered Gilgit-Baltistan formerly known as Northern Areas of Pakistan, the journey is extremely dangerous. This is some serious driving. This insane road has humbled many egos. It’s not for the baby and shouldn’t be attempted by novice drivers. The road links the Karakoram Highway at Passu and Shimshal, a beautiful village located in Gojal, Hunza-Nagar District, at an altitude of 10,213ft above sea level. It’s the highest settlement in Hunza Valley of Pakistan. It is the bordering village that connects the Gilgit-Baltistan province of Pakistan with China. It’s incredibly disorienting to look over the edge, or even just to see the valleys a couple of thousand feet below you. The road is hindered by the elevation and rugged terrain. The village was inaccessible by motor road until October 2003, when this new road was constructed. The construction of a non-metallic Jeep-able road started in 1985 and completed in 2003. Eighteen years (1985-2003) of handwork finally become successful because of hard work, dedication, and self-help. Up to that time, it was very difficult to go there. You had to cross 3 high 5000 Meters passes and it was a 3-day hard and dangerous trip. The journey runs along the fearsome gorges of the Shimshal River, a gigantic canyon at a height of more than 2000 m. In many places, the road is bordered by a drop of hundreds of feet unprotected by guardrails. The road is pretty steep. A 4WD vehicle and an experienced driver are recommended. Do not travel this road in severe weather conditions. The road remains covered by snow seven to eight months of the year. For half of the way, the road is on a man-made ledge hundreds & hundreds of feet above the river, on the near-vertical side of the gorge. You will have to cross some scary wooden bridges. The drivers moving passengers and luggage every day from Passu to Shimshal, covering a distance of 55 kilometers, are highly skilled, but still, they drive very carefully, to avoid any calamity. If the vehicle goes off the road, deaths are imminent. there is a bridge under construction and a temporary bridge is scary and dangerous. The old bridge has vanished and I have to cross this stream water is cold and it is impossible to cross alone.
