About
Basho Valley lies in Skardu District and is reached by a drive that crosses the Basho River by suspension bridge. The valley is known for pine forests, green meadows, clear streams, and a waterfall along the way. Sultanabad is the main village of the valley, and nearby points of interest include the Basho River, Basho Forest, and a rock formation known as Camel Rock. The setting is calm and rural, and the valley is a good place for a picnic or short walk. It makes a good half-day or day trip from Skardu for travellers who want a break from the more famous attractions.
