The journey typically takes 14-18 hours by road, though most travelers break it into two days with an overnight stop in Besham or Chilas. This route is considered one of the most scenic mountain highways in the world, running alongside the Indus River through dramatic gorges and high peaks. The stretch between Besham and Chilas is the most landslide-prone section, especially during monsoon season (July-August) and spring snowmelt. Road conditions can change quickly, so checking current status before departure is strongly recommended.

Recent road improvements connecting Skardu directly to the Karakoram Highway have significantly reduced travel times compared to previous years.

While generally well-maintained, this road does experience occasional landslides, especially around the Attabad Lake tunnels during heavy rain. Regular vans and private taxis operate this route daily, making it one of the more accessible drives in the region for tourists heading to Karimabad, Attabad Lake, and Passu.

Gilgit Chitral road update — live status via Shandur Pass road is Open . The Gilgit-Chitral route connects Gilgit to Chitral via the Shandur Pass, one of the highest polo grounds in the world, passing through Ghizer district along the way.

The road passes through remote, high-altitude terrain and is less developed than the KKH, meaning travel times can vary significantly based on conditions — typically 8-10 hours depending on the season and road state. This route is popular with adventure travelers and those attending the annual Shandur Polo Festival, but requires careful planning and current road status checks given its remote, weather-dependent nature.

KKH road update today — Besham to Chilas section status.Road is Open . This stretch forms the middle portion of the Karakoram Highway, connecting Besham through Dasu to Chilas.

This is historically the most landslide and rockfall-prone section of the whole Islamabad-Gilgit journey, with occasional road-widening and dam-related construction work near Dasu adding to delays. Travelers on this stretch should always check current conditions before departure, and avoid night driving given the narrow, winding sections with limited visibility.
