This trek passes mostly through
human settlements except the Ovir Pass. Used by the local people for
traveling to Chitral. State dissidents and noble princes also used it. The
route connects a number of hamlets where one can see local culture. The
Zani Pass route has been a well-used one since time immemorial. This pass
gives a spectacular view of a number of giant summits of the Hindukush and
Hindu Raj.
