The Picturesque Ghulkin And Gulmit Villages in Upper Hunza, Pakistan
Ghulkin Village is located in Gojal, upper Hunza. It is reached by following the Karakoram Highway (KKH) 140km north of Gilgit. This trip takes 3-4 hours by van. From a turn-off just beyond Gulmit, a winding jeep track leads upwards for 3 km, until the ground flattens out and the first houses of the village come into view. Ghulkin occupies the site of an old glacier-fed lake, which has been silted up by continuous sedimentation. All images are available for royalty-free commercial or editorial licensing.
