Spanish tourists exploring Northern Pakistan barefoot – here’s why

Once again, Spanish tourists have arrived back in Pakistan and are travelling through the beautiful valleys of Chitral and other northern areas..this time in a very unique way.

Meet Eesa, who is known as the “International Malang,” along with Spanish actress Jamra. They are on a long three-year walking journey and reached Pakistan in June. Now they are exploring the northern regions completely barefoot.

According to Eesa, they choose to walk without shoes to feel a deeper connection with nature. He says it helps them experience the mountains more directly and feel their natural energy with every step.

People are surprised to see them travelling this way, but for them it is a spiritual and mindful journey through some of the most beautiful landscapes in the world.

Markhor — The Mountain King of Pakistan 🇵🇰🏔️

The majestic Markhor, known as the national animal of Pakistan, is one of the most fascinating creatures found in the rugged mountains of Gilgit-Baltistan, Chitral, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan.

The name “Markhor” is often translated as “snake-eater” or “snake-killer”, inspired by its massive spiral horns that resemble twisting serpents. According to local folklore, people believed the Markhor could kill snakes and neutralize their venom, giving it a sacred reputation as a protector of mountain ecosystems.

In reality, the Markhor is a peaceful herbivore that survives on grass, leaves, and shrubs while climbing some of the harshest mountain terrains on Earth.

What truly makes the Markhor special is its strength, balance, and resilience. Watching this incredible animal move fearlessly across steep rocky cliffs feels like witnessing the true spirit of northern Pakistan itself.

A real king of the mountains 🇵🇰🏔️
