From Osh to Murgab and further to the Pamirs

Country forums / Central Asia / Kyrgyzstan

Hello,

I am planning to travel from Osh to Murgab on the 25th of September and was wondering if there is anybody else who is going that direction round that time so we could share a taxi and travel together. Later on the plan is to go to Khorog hopefully making a detour through Wakhan Corridor. Any info and recommendations are more than welcome!

Kristiina-Maria,

How was your trip in the Pamir? I've had some people tell me the Wakhan has gotten "dangerous" because of the way things have been developing in Afghanistan as of late. What did you see and what kind of a feel did you get?

I am in Bishkek now and I got my visa for Tajikistan but they did want to give me the GBAO PERMIT, I guess it's because I am solo traveler, but the guys said to not possible right now. No further explanation. I want to do that same trip but seems very complicated now.
