Good Day,

the best way to make it from Astore, but with a very good 4 by 4 car where ever you're in the northern part of Pakistan due to the steep roads and high altitude.

It's more scenic from Astore and Rama lake.



Bon Voyage,

Hello there
Your 4x4 seems to be a bit heavy to me as there is suspension brigde in Deosai which may not hold the weight of your vehicle. AS you will be with luggage, may be a smaller willy's jeep will suite you. Any route you follow
Islamabad - Skardu - Deosai
Islamabad - Deosai - Skardu

Won't be much of a difference. You will enjoy. Make sure you take fishing equipments for fishing. And please be careful not to throw trash anywhere when you are in northern areas. As you know these are very delicate places.

Take care
