Pakistan is home to a number of off beat destinations. If Karakoarm Highway takes you to a road that snakes its way into China, travelling to Khyber Pass is another exciting journey that takes you to the tribal hinterland on the borders of Afghanistan.
Situated in the Sulaiman Hills (also spelled as Suleman), Khyber Pass is one of the most famous passes in the world. The 53 kilometres narrow pass winds through the mountains on the border between northern Pakistan and eastern Afghanistan. The Khyber Pass is situated about 16 kilometres west of Peshawar and extends to Afghanistan border.
Driving on the Khyber Pass is a unique kind of experience. Many conquerors and rulers, who came from far off places like central Asia and Greek, used the pass in the past as the entry point to the Indian sub continent. Travelling through the pass is like passing through the layers of rocky mountain peaks and rugged barren landscapes.
The Khyber Pass links Peshawar in Pakistan to Kabul in Afghanistan. Before you decide to hit the rugged barren road, it is essential to collect all the information about the route and travel procedure. You may need a special permit to take the tour to Khyber Pass.
The Khyber Train is another exciting medium that you can take on your tour to Khyber Pass. The train takes you from Peshawar to Landi Kotal. The train journey is a wonderful experience as the train passes through 34 tunnels and crosses 92 bridges on its journey from Peshawar to Landi Kotal. The rail line was built by the British in the 1920s.
