Glamp Pakistan Katpana Cold Desert Skardu | Balti Lunch & Local Haircut Experience (Episode 14)

Welcome to the 14th episode of my longest ever Northern Pakistan travel series. Over the next few videos, I’ll be taking you along on an 18-day journey where I covered around 3,000 kilometers across some of the most stunning parts of Pakistan. We embarked on an epic journey, crossing iconic mountain passes like Shandur Pass, famous for its polo festival, and Lowari Pass via the Lowari Tunnel. We explored the breathtaking Phander Valley, visited Gilgit, and Hunza. From there, we traveled along the scenic Gilgit-Skardu Road, spent a night at Deosai, the world's second-highest plateau, known as the 'Land of Giants. We also explored Shiger, Katpana, and the stunning Sarfranga Cold Desert in Skardu. Finally, we flew back to Lahore on a PIA flight from Skardu. In this episode, we stay at a glamp site in Katpana Cold Desert, Skardu, one of the highest cold deserts in the world. Alongside this unique glamping experience, we also enjoy a traditional Balti lunch 🍲 at a local home and step into a Skardu hair cutting salon 💈 for a cultural experience you don’t usually see in travel vlogs. From the majestic views of the Katpana Cold Desert to the warmth of Balti hospitality, this vlog captures a slice of life in Skardu, Gilgit-Baltistan.
