Khunjerab Pass
Khunjerab Pass (sometimes
Khunerjab Pass) is a high
pass on the northern border of
Pakistan with
China. It peaks at 4730 m and is the highest point on the
Karakorum highway. This section of the
road was completed in
1982 and is possibly the highest metalled border crossing in the world.
The pass is often snow covered and during the rainy season (December-April), because of mudslides the pass is closed to all vehicles except large trucks.
