The trail info on this page is work in progress and will be updated regularly. Ultimately it should provide detailed trail information, including practicalities (transport, accommodation, guiding services) and maps with lots of geographical names and features.

GPX file for the full Pamir Trail

Video of the full length of the Pamir Trail in 3D

In 2024 we established the first full version of the Pamir Trail! This means it is possible to hike the entire length the route, 1310 kilometres in total with an elevation gain of 61,000 metres. But we keep looking for alternative routes, as the state of the terrain changes all the time. The current complete version of the Pamir Trail is shown on the map below. It gives you a sense which mountain ranges the trail passes across Tajikistan. It also shows the 9 different colour coded sections of the route.

———————————————————————————-

Section 6A is designed to be an easier, safer and lower route between the Rasht and Darvoz Districts across the 3850m high Psoda Pass. For now it ends in Qalai Khumb, but the Pamir Trail team is working on the extension between Qalai Khumb and Vanj. For now, the only feasible way to reach Vanj and continue the Pamir Trail is to get transport between the places. If you’re a purist you could hike the roughly 100km but it is very unpleasant and with the traffic sometimes even dangerous. We’re trying to find an efficient way to help you finding a car, as shared taxis and mini-busses are unreliable on this stretch of the Pamir Highway. Get in touch for advice.

-WARNING: STAGES 51B - 55B HAVE BEEN TESTED, BUT IT PROVED TO BE VERY HARD. EXPECT ROUTE SECTIONS WITHOUT TRAIL, OVERGROWN TERRAIN AND DEEP FAST-FLOWING RIVERS. WE ADVICE TO DO THIS PART OF THE PAMIR TRAIL FROM THE FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER, NOT EARLIER AS SOME RIVERS ARE LIKELY TO BE IMPASSABLE. WE AIM TO IMPROVE / ADD INFRASTRUCTURE TO OVERCOME THESE NATURAL BOUNDARIES.-
