Events / March - April
Gilgit-Baltistan
Apricot and cherry blossoms wake the orchards of Hunza and Skardu, the first sign of mountain spring.
Valley roads turn pink and white as orchards bloom before the summer trek season.
Hunza, Nagar, and Skardu each mark spring differently. Hunza's orchards above the Karakoram Highway are the classic image; Skardu offers quieter blossom walks near the Indus confluence.
Base at GreenPak Hotel Hunza for orchard walks and Attabad Lake, or K2 Hotel Skardu for the Skardu side of the season.
Winter
High-altitude winter motorsport, jeeps on a snow-cross course beneath Saran Pir Chanasi.

The first-sowing spring festival of Hunza, Nagar, and the Baltistan valleys, ritual seeding, music, and shared meals.
March 21-23
Persian new year across the northern valleys, spring cleaning, feasts, and the first outdoor gatherings after winter.
