Fancy hiking a section of the Pamir Trail in 2025?
In 2024 the Pamir Trail was connected from start to end and it is possible to hike the entire route now. While not every section is suitable for commercial trekking yet, we are teaming up with a number of our local Tajik partners to take groups in the summer of 2025 to hike one or more sections. For the moment trekking expeditions along section 1 (Fann Mountains), section 8 (Rushan Range) and section 9 (Shugnan and Shakhdara Ranges) are being organised. If you’re interested in joining a group to hike one of these sections on the Pamir Trail, please express your interest via the contact form. For more details see below.

12 day Pamir Mountain Lakes - Pamir Trail Section 8
For our longtime partner Pamir Eco Tourism we are promoting the trek along section 8 of the Pamir Trail this summer. This is arguably the most beautiful stretch of the Pamir part of the trail, with bluer than blue mountain lakes, remote shepherd settlements and tumbling glaciers from peaks that are close to 6000 metres high. On this journey you’ll also travel along the famous Pamir Highway and in the stunning Bartang Valley.
