INTRODUCTION 

The Explore Passu is first web page where the visitor can find any related information about Passu Village.  This site is possibly the only one existing, and written by a native Passu based on first- hand experience. I had spent one  and half year to prepare this site.

This site takes you to the Passu valley areas. The village is a visitor paradise, with small narrow valleys, fairy meadows of Alpine flowers in all sizes, shapes and colors and of the sweetest fragrance. An area surrounded by snow-capped mountain peaks, they seems un-climbable and impenetrable.

This is an area that has had very few tourists or trekkers. there are isolated pockets of still virgin beauty... areas where one can still enjoy the unique culture of unadulterated people and their awesome mountain terrain. 

The Passu opens up the heart of upper  Hunza and welcome those who have a longing to know and enjoy the natural romantic beauty on earth- to those bold enough to walk up and down rough trails all day, to cross the mighty ice -cold milky glacier streams and rivers, to confront a glacial moat and massive crevasses and to have to trail cut by avalanche sidings.

You can enjoy sunny days camped by a glacier or have to sit out a freezing cold storm- this storm strong enough to remove the tent which is your only protection.

This is an area that should be visited whether you have only a week or better still, a year.

I most admire Mr. Haqiqat Ali (late)  who had spent his whole life to introduce the Hunza valley. He wrote several books, the first Edition published   in Feb 1986, Second Edition  in June 1987 and Third Edition was in April 1988.
