A really nice guesthouse in Zuwudkhoon, the last village in Chipurson valley. Alam, the owner, has been running this place for over 2 decades. He is a man of the mountains and will offer great advice if needed. Comfortable rooms and areas to relax in, and a glass sunroom with beautiful views of the mountains. He will also try arrange a visit to Baba Ghundi, which is not meant to be allowed for foreigners. You eat meals with the family, and when we asked how much everything cost he just said to pay what we feel is fair.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
We came by car to this nice & relaxing place. As the road can get very narrow at some points, not recommended for big rigs. It is a good gravel road though. Takes about 2,5 hours. Very scenic at the start.
We could sleep in our car in the garden for free and use the toilet and even hot bucket shower. Had our meals with them (breakfast 200 PKR, lunch&dinner 300 PKR p.p.). Rooms are also available for 1000 PKR.
Some nice (multiple) day treks to do in the area. A nice half-day hike to small lakes in which you can swim is possible. Owner Alam Jan can tell you everything about the hikes, Wakhi culture and the crazy treks he made in his life. He can also recommend some nice wildcamp spots further down the valley.
