r/DiscoverSkardu

One of the most unique places in Skardu is the famous Sarfaranga/katpana Cold Desert, where you can witness sand dunes surrounded by snow-covered mountains at the same time.

It honestly feels unreal when cold winds, desert views, and majestic peaks all come together in one place. During winter, the desert sometimes gets covered with snow, making the whole landscape look like something from another world.

Whether you love adventure, peaceful landscapes, camping, photography, or simply nature..,Skardu’s Cold Desert gives a completely different experience from anywhere else in Pakistan.

This is the kind of beauty that makes Gilgit-Baltistan unforgettable 🇵🇰🏔️

Driving through the mighty Karakoram highway one of the most breathtaking roads in the world..the journey is just as beautiful as the destination.

Pakistan’s landscapes are truly breathtaking..

It’s not possible to capture the beauty in cameras.

4 days trip to Skardu - such an amazing and beautiful place.

We went to Sok valley & our driver suggested to eat beside the water as the guys are connected from the same village we did order and it turned out to be a disaster.

Next day we went to https://maps.app.goo.gl/HKsXf7HmKmdTDzKt6?g\_st=ic Raspal restuarant. Again poor quality. Dishes were cooked with oil that we could not digest even until next morning.

After having bad food for first two days decided to try home made from Balti Cuisine https://maps.app.goo.gl/WqeeFx29Kn8AEriL8?g\_st=ic
Again such a disaster. This was even big of a disaster as previously I had paid 5500-6000 PKR a dinner or brunch but this lady charged us 10,000 Rs. Again the quality of food was horrible.

Can someone recommend good food options we have only 2 days left and we are heading towards Deosai now and tomorrow we want to go Shigar.
