Pakistan’s Kalash Valleys, composed of Bumburet, Rumbur, and Birir, are the hidden gems encircled by the magnificent Hindu Kush Mountain, a part of the Himalayas. The sturdy peaks are dotted with scrubs of birch and juniper for beautiful, natural views.
The valleys are famous for both the beauty and the natural enchantment of the inhabitants and assumed to be the ancestors of the armies of Alexander the Great. Rather than Muslims, the Kalash are animists, an ethnic group, and live in wooden homes bordering the high hills. Women are renowned for their conventional gaily-colored garments and headpieces that you can only see in this part of Pakistan.
Jeeps and car rentals easily transport tourists from Chitral to the remote Kalash Valleys that is 2.5 hours away. Bumburet is the most populous valley and is popular among tourists from Pakistan. Rumbur and Birir are less established and popular with international travelers.
