What To Expect
Karakoram Highway
We start our journey from Kashgar and drive along the China-Pakistan Friendship Highway (also known as the Karakoram Highway). After about 50 Kms, we stop at Upal Village. Here, buy some fresh fruits, nang (a kind of local bread) and other food for the journey. Meanwhile, you can also taste some local snacks like baked buns and experience the atmosphere of the local village market. Then continue to drive to the Oytagh Red Mountain and stop for taking pictures to record the wonderful moment and feel the amazing power of nature and the grandeur of the Kunlun Mountains. Keep driving to White Sand Lake (Baisha Lake). The lake water is clear and blue while the sand dunes are snow-white, forming a unique landscape. Walk along the lakeside, enjoy the beautiful view of the lake and mountains, and take pictures.
Karakul Lake Tours
Then continue to visit Karakul Lake (3600m above sea level). The lake sits at the foot of the notorious, Muztagh Ata (7546m) and Gongur (7719m) mountains. ‘Muztagh Ata’ means Father of the Ice Mountain and is one of the most beautiful and mysterious mountains in the world. You can take a break by the lake, admire the magnificent reflections of Muztagh Ata and nine peaks of Kongur Mountains. Lunch will be at the lake side restaurant as your like and then return to Kashgar whenever you are ready.

5.00The guide is very knowledgeable, kind, and organized. He speaks English very well and, with his experience, recommended the most beautiful places to see! Lake Baisha and Lake Karakul are stunning! We rented a private car for a good price, which allowed us to avoid the crowds of larger vans! I recommend everyone to book with this agency because we had a great experience!
