Summary:
Chitral was a princely state ruled by the Mehtars until 1969, while the neighbouring Kalash valleys preserve a pre Islamic culture and belief system found nowhere else in the world, believed to date back over 2,000 years.
A remote district in the far north of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, dominated by Tirich Mir (7,708m), the highest peak of the Hindu Kush, with the Kalash valleys, Bumburet, Rumbur and Birir, branching off the main Chitral valley.
The Kalash are a distinct ethno religious community with their own language, animist influenced religion, and vivid traditional dress, celebrated at three annual festivals including the spring Chilam Joshi.
Warm summers in the main Chitral valley, cold winters with heavy snow closing high passes; the Lowari Tunnel keeps road access open year round.
