Road Trip - Karachi to Khunjrab 2019 - Jshak Car Diaries

[Jshak]

A Family Trip
Drove all the way from Karachi to Khunjrab. Alhamdullillah by the grace of Allah SWT my dream came true.
I had done this trip solo a couple of times, but driving on your own was my first time. It took us around 3 - 4 days reaching to the Chinese Border. It was a 14 days tour. Roads were pretty disturb on way from Naran to Chillas and coming from Chillas to Besham ( as had to go to Madyn)
My itenary started with my dear friend and a family member as well, Khurram Saeed Khan. We had agreed to head to towards the said itinerary. As we had a similar goal. Our planning took around 1 month to decide where to go and how to do the things. Boarding and lodging when it comes with family, we had to decide the best for their comfort.

Drive was around 9 hours with stop overs almost daily covering around 800 kms at an average.

Wow, so many places. This could be a dream tour for me. Did you stayed in major places like Gilgit/Hunza and explored for at least 24 hours? I found at least 10 POI where I could stay for more than 1 day + to explorer area. I might add Kashmir/Naran Kaghan to tour (Aiming for 20 days including traveling time)

We will be 4 people + A driver (no I am not driving on my own, I want to enjoy traveling) in Corolla/Civic? Is it a good comfortable car? What's the best time for a visit? I guess somewhere between September & October before Snowfall. Couldn't be December January, because most of the roads might be closed.

Geez thats a lot, but nice places.

14 days for all those places sounds kinda wasteful. It takes a while for you to really absorb in a place. This sounds more like something designed for a month-long trip.
